Changing the default for ieee802.11 decryption

Hello, I just wasted some time when trying to decode ieee 802.11 wpa2 traffic: It wouldn't decode even after entering the keys. In the end it turned out that decryption is off by default and needs to be turned on seperately. IMO this violates the principle of least surprise. It should be turned on by default to make things easier for "normal" users and power users may still change this for their needs. Objections to me changing this? Thanks Jörg -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
