I understand that LINKTYPE_ value just saves an id for the link type, but parsing code for InfiniBand is exist in wireshark - under ERF link type (Extensible Record File), so I wonder why not using the actual link type of InfiniBand.

Currently, Wireshark includes no code to process those frames, so it cannot handle LINKTYPE_INFINIBAND pcap files or packets for LINKTYPE_INFINIBAND interfaces in pcapng files.
tcpdump doesn't have any code to process them, either. The existence of a LINKTYPE_ value does not, in and of itself, indicate that any code exists, in any protocol analyzer, to handle it. _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list tcpdump-workers () lists tcpdump org https://lists.sandelman.ca/mailman/listinfo/tcpdump-workers
