I am using prismdump in conjunction with Ethereal on an 802.11 WLAN.
My problem is this - packets going through a Cisco WLAN bridge are
having their OUI changed from the encapsulated ethernet code of 00 00 00h
to a Cisco code of 00 00 78h.  Ethereal seems unable to do anything with
the packets, which are definitely IP packets, leaving them as
generic LLC frames.

Has anyone found/written a work-around for this problem?


Thanks,  Joe
