Error with attempt to monitor RF Monitor port mon0 /wifi

[David Saint Ruby <davidsaintruby () gmail com>]

Hello all… have a use case to monitor a wifi channel (open AP).



Am opening up a virtual RF Monitor interface with airmon-ng.



version 2.9.5.5.



Compiled from source with   --enable-non-ether-decoders



Message:

pcap DAQ configured to passive.

The DAQ version does not support reload.

Acquiring network traffic from "mon0".

Reload thread starting...

Reload thread started, thread 0xa777db70 (15787)

ERROR: Cannot decode data link type 127

Fatal Error, Quitting..



Has anyone seen this before?  Is monitoring an interface showing the full
802.11 frames even possible?



Wireshark is fine with it.  I do not care about rules around the radio
management fields or packets.





Thanks


David Saint Ruby
