I use the "Hw dest addr (resolved)" column and often have IP multicast packets
in my traces (IP 224.0.0.0 - 239.255.255.255, MAC 01:00:5E:00:00:00 -
01:00:5E:7F:FF:FF, RFC1112). They're resolved with this line in manuf:

00:00:5E        UscInforma             # USC INFORMATION SCIENCES INST

I work around this by adding the following at the end of manuf:

01:00:5E:00:00:00/25    IPmcast
