How do I confirm PMF is working?

Hi All,

I've enabled Protected Management Frames (PMF) by setting it to Capable on my wireless access point. I would like to confirm it is working via Wireshark. When I capture WiFi packets and look at the management frames, I see information like MAC addresses and SSID names. Is this normal? What information does PMF help to protect?

Thanks, Randy
