Comment # 2 on bug 8305 from
Hi nikkipui,

After some verification, there is a not a bug in Wireshark. (I think it is a
bug in your network simulator...)

The Subframe length is in "big endian format (network order)" and not little
endian

>From 802.11-2012 : 8.3.2.2 A-MSDU format
[...]
The A-MSDU subframe header contains three fields: DA, SA, and Length. The order
of these fields and the bits within these fields are the same as the IEEE 802.3
frame format
[...]

IEEE 802.3 Frame format use network to host order (big endian)
