Hi
   I use the following method to set the capture filter.  Capture the packets without any capture filter.  Then click on the field in one of the packets based on which
you want to filter ( Say for example source ip address ).  On the right hand corner of ethereal, window you will see the capture field name that should be used for
filtering ( For ex: in this case ip.src ). 
 
-thanks,

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Filters

Hello everybody. I'm new here.
 
My problem is that i don't understand anything about capture/display filters.
 
I have no idea of how to set them... i see it too difficult.
 
Which is the trick? Special strings?
 
I would like for example, to see only traffic with a specific destination mac or network (192.168.x.x).
 
Thanks :)
