Hi,

For a number of reasons it would be useful to have a capture file format 
that includes multiple link-type records. This does not seem to be allowed 
by the current pcap format.

Some of the reasons include:

  - Being able to include packets from many interfaces in the one capture
    file

  - Being able to include information records in the capture file,
    for pedagogic or other reasons.

Is it possible to define a new pcap version that includes a linktype field 
in the header of each packet?
 
Regards
