No. That's supposed to happen automatically. > How does it decide which DLT is appropriate? It decides based on the encapsulation type of the input file, e.g. if the input file has an encapsulation type of WTAP_ENCAP_ETHERNET (as, for example, a libpcap file with DLT_EN10MB would have), Wireshark would open the output file with that encapsulation type, which the libpcap-writing code would map to DLT_EN10MB. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
