Presumably by "PCAP (or similar) adapters" you mean "AirPcap (or similar) adapters":Correct. We've grown accustomed to calling them "PCAP" for short.
Given that not everybody's familiar with that convention - I've never heard it, for example - and that "pcap" is also used to refer to libpcap/WinPcap (see the Wikipedia page for "pcap", for example), using the full name is probably a better idea on the list. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
