Hi,

When running tshark, I occasionally see instances where fields contain
comma delimited lists of values. For example, an ip.src field delimited
by pipe may contain two ips: 192.168.1.1,8.8.8.8. I am not sure how to
interpret this output.

I am running tshark as follows:

sudo tshark -i eth0 -l -E separator='|' -T fields -e frame.time_epoch -e
ip.src -e ip.dst -e udp.srcport -e udp.dstport -e tcp.srcport -e
tcp.dstport -e dns.flags.response -e dns.qry.name -e dns.flags.rcode -e
ip.proto -e dns.resp.addr -e frame.time_delta_displayed -e ip.len -e
tcp.flags -e eth.src -e eth.dst -e frame.len -e http.request -e
http.response


In some instances I receive output akin to the following:

1469188329.151229000|192.168.1.113,8.8.8.6|8.8.8.6,192.168.1.113|53|
39389|||1|daisy.ubuntu.com|0|1,17|162.213.33.133,162.213.33.164|
0.000249000|122,94||00:25:90:df:ff:52|ec:bd:1d:2d:bc:77|136


You're probably capturing some frames that have 2 IP sources in
them--usually because you've got IP-in-IP somehow.

The most common example of this would be an ICMP response where you'll have
the IP source of the node sending the ICMP as well as the IP source of the
encapsulated IP packet (the one that couldn't, for example, be delivered).
But you'll get the same behavior with any number of tunneling protocols.
