Re: Capture options default values

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your response.  For the disable "Ring buffer with" item, I was referring to the fact that when you launch 
Wireshark, the ring buffer is turned on by default.  I’ve set files to 10000 but was wondering if there was just a way 
to have it unchecked.

Is there any way to control the default values on startup (or via preferences) for the following capture options:

?     set the default "Capture Filter"

wireshark -f <capture filter>

?     enable "Use multiple files"
?     set "Next file every" value to 10

wireshark -b duration:10

?     disable "Ring buffer with"

I'm not sure what you're referring to here.  Could you elaborate?

You can find out above the options listed above by typing wireshark -h at a command prompt or the Unix man page (a copy 
of which is available on the web at http://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/wireshark.html).
