Are you sure this works? From within the gui there is no way to enter
paths to capture interfaces that I can see, and the other options:
wireshark /full/path/to/fifo.pcap
wireshark -i /full/path/to/fifo.pcap
Also don't work.
I'm on linux, I've written a utility (in lua, for what it's worth)
that captures ZigBee traffic from a UZBee USB device, and writes it in
pcap format. If I write it to a file, I can read the file, but I would
very much like to write it to a FIFO and see live traffic capture.
Hitting the refresh button continually sucks.
Is there a way to do this?
