-----Original Message----- From: wireshark-dev-bounces () wireshark org [mailto:wireshark-dev-bounces () wireshark org] On Behalf Of Guy Harris Sent: den 12 april 2016 02:04 To: Developer support list for Wireshark Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Fake MAC addresses in text2pcap and "Import from hex dump" When synthesizing an Ethernet header, text2pcap uses 0a:02:02:02:02:02 as the destination address and 0a:01:01:01:01:01 as the source address, while "Import from hex dump" uses 20:52:45:43:56:00 as the destination and 20:53:45:4E:44:00 as the source. Is there some reason why they're different? If not, which of them *should* both be using? Even if R E C V and S E N D is clever I think I prefer the other one which makes it clearer that it's a fake MAC.
