I want to capture packetes from LLC 802.2.

Can i do this with ethereal ethernet 802.3.
Yes, as long as the 802.2 packets are running atop 802.3 rather than atop Token Ring or 802.11 or FDDI or ATM AAL5 or.... :-) 


Ethereal doesn’t show me the packets on the display.


I.e., you're not seeing any 802.2 packets?

Did you use a capture filter?  If so, what filter was it?
Are the packets you're trying to capture being sent by the machine running Ethereal or to the machine running Ethereal? If not - i.e., if you're trying to capture traffic between two other machines on the network - see
