Yes. But I suppose those numbers change from time to time.

What a shame! Maybe it's a good idea to use another prefix for dumping
USB, not the one overlapping with default interface names for drivers in
kernel? Though it is more upstream issue.

 RF> That sounds like some other issue.

Looks the same for me: error message about usbmon appears when trying to
run tcpdump usb0 as non-root.
