For my USB/PPP capturing, currently to get a capture of all traffic over that interface, I either have to use usbmon or ppp's record option to generate a pppdump file. (OK, this last one isn't really specific to capturing on multiple interfaces, but it's related to capturing so ...)I think it'd be nice feature to start, pause or stop captuing on any interface at any time.
That would need to be controlled via the Wireshark GUI. I think we'll focus on getting the base feature in the GUI first...
But it'd be easier to implement if instead of running N-threads single dumpcap we run N dumpcaps...
No sure. you can create threads and kill them. However, dumpcap then can not give up the privileges after the initial startup phase... Best regards Michael
