Hi,
I've captured some Ethernet traces with Ethereal and on many of the ARP
replies, I see an FCS of 0x888888 which it indicates is incorrect. What I'm
trying to figure out is if this is real or being caused by the NIC on my
laptop. I tried using a hardware sniffer with promiscuous NICs and I don't
see this.
Can incorrect FCS indications in Ethereal be caused by the NIC hardware /
driver used on the host machine Ethereal is running on?
Thanks,
Paul
