Hi Tyson,

Thank you very much for the response.
Is it possible to capture on desired ‘x’ interfaces in ‘n’ interfaces available using “dumpcap”.
This is what I'm working on. The capture file will be stored in .pcapng format... Saving in .pcapng is already available in the svn version. Use the -n option.
Testing it is highly appreciated...

Best regards
Michael

Chandra.

Hi, Chandra.
Assuming that all the devices you want to capture on uses the same link type, there's an "any" pseudo-device on Linux that you can use. Sadly, it doesn't store information about the devices involved, and the link type-specific headers are transformed into a "Cooked" format. You might want to investigate pcap-ng for that sort of stuff.

Hope that helps,
Tyson.

Hi,



We all know Wireshark can capture on different interfaces, can it be able to capture on all interfaces at once using Wireshark?



If ‘No’ is the answer can any one help me in understanding how capturing is done using Wireshark?

I could change the implementation accordingly for my needs to capture on all interfaces.



Thanks in advance.



Regards,

Chandra.
