Ethereal will use whatever the winpcap packet capture library is willing
to give it. For support of various NICs/NDIS etc you will probably need
to talk to the winpcap people.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Ethereal & Gigabit ethernet


Hi anyone.

I installed Ethereal 0.9.7 on my Windows 98 PC.
It seems to work fine with my 10/100 NIC and the NDIS 3.0 Driver.

I will soon be getting a Gigabit Ethernet NIC, and I have two questions
about Ethereal: 1. Does Ethereal handle Jumbo Frames?
       ( I assume it does, but I have never seen it explicitly stated. )

2. If the new NIC uses NDIS 4.0 or 5.0, is Ethereal compatible with it?

Thanks for any help.
