I have a capture that I want apply a display filter on to identify any 802.11 beacon frames that have the unicast cipher suite "TKIP" set. This field is one of several tag interpretations for the same tag number - I'm not sure how to specify this field with a display filter.

I thought something like "wlan_mgt.tag.interpretation[6:4] eq 0x0050f202" would work, but Ethereal isn't accepting it as a valid filter. I want to be able to apply a filter to include only those beacon frames that have support for the TKIP unicast cipher suite.

I have uploaded an excerpt of the capture file I'm working with at http://home.jwu.edu/jwright/tag_interpretation.dump.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
