Hi, I have created an ethers file, like described in the wireshark docs and put it into a personal profile (e.g. testETHERS) Is there an additional step needed to the MAC addresses resolved? I have enabled the physical name resolving. I am using Wireshark 3.0.6 64Bit for Windows.
ethers does not support a profile specific version, only the personal and global configuration directories. Some of the configuration files do, e.g. vlans, but the current state overall seems to be inconsistent and undocumented.
At the time of writing, in the current master branch, the following address resolution files can be loaded from a profile:
I don't know what the state is for 3.0.6.
Ok makes sense. But I have also tried the global and personal configuration directories. But it didn’t work.
Works for me in the personal config directory with 3.1.1 dev build. In my file I had:
f3.ae.85.32.96.37 machine1
f4:d5:45:e8:aa:d2 machine2
Do you have "Resolve MAC addresses" checked in the Name Resolution Preferences?
Also checked with 3.0.6 and it works for me there was well.
Ok we start at the very beginning: where exactly have you stored the ethers. I have stored it in %appdata%roaming/wireshark
