Re: Packets in different VLANS flagged as duplicated Packets in RTP Stream Analysis

Hi,

This is hard to solve in a generic way. There are multiple ways in which networks can be multiplexed, which then all have to be taken into account.
I'm thinking of VLAN, VLAN (in VLAN)+, MPLS, L2TP, PPPoX, pcap-ng, etc.

What you may be able to do is capture from a vlan interface i.s.o. the physical interface. So -i eth1.1 i.s.o -i 2. But I guess you cannot, because of a need to capture the full trunk?

Thanks,
Jaap

That certainly does look the same scenario - as the last update was 2010 can I
assume that this will not be fixed any time soon?

    Hi Everyone,

    I should have noted the following:

      * I am running Wireshark 1.8.1 (compiled from source) under CentOS 6.3.

      * Dumpcap command command line is:


    /usr/local/bin/dumpcap -B 32 -i 2 -f vlan and (not vrrp and not udp port
    1985 and not ether host 01:00:0c:cc:cc:cc) -b files:1200 -b filesize:250000
    -b duration:900 -w /var/opt/data/captures/eth1.cap

    Thanx in advance for any guidance!

    John

        Hi Everyone,

        I am running Dumpcap as a service.

        My users have told me that when they select a packet capture then select
        Telephony - RTP - Show all Streams that it indicates packets are being
        duplicated (negative packet loss).

        For the packets being duplicated (negative packet loss), I discovered
        that there are in fact 2 packets being seen by Wireshark with the same
        SRC/DST IP Addresses and the same ID number BUT different VLANS tags.

        Is this an error in Wireshark that should be fixed or is there some way
        to configure Wireshark to look at the VLAN tag as well as the ID number
        before determining a packet is duplicated?

        Thanx alot!

        John
