may i know how Ethereal classified packets to be group in Other?
I assume you're referring here to the packet counts and percentages displayed while you're capturing.
If so, Ethereal classifies packets as "Other" if the packet-classifying code doesn't classify them as being in any of the other categories it lists, either because they're not in any of those categories or because there's a bug in the classifying code.
