Ethereal-users: RE: [Ethereal-users] Can not see vlan tag information with Ethereal
Sake,
I had gone through the pages that you mentioned and did not find much information. Do you still have any lead to trouble shoot the problem?

Ethereal can capture everything else from the IP Phone except vlan tag information. The NIC that I used on the PC is 3Com 3C918 Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller (3C905B-TX Compactible). Is there anything that I missed in set up of the Ethereal? Or do you have any idea where the problem is?

Basically, this is a driver problem, it strips the 802.1Q tags
from the frame before passing it to higher protocols.
Please have a look at http://wiki.ethereal.com/CaptureSetup/VLAN
This helped me in getting the 802.1Q tags to be shown in ethereal.
(My laptop has broadcom hardware, but I believe there is also info
for 3com hardware on that page.)
Cheers, Sake
