Well, at least on my Windows PC, I like to see the IP address so I can know which of the extremely obscure names Windows gives to the interfaces is the one that's plugged in and in use. On the typical multi-homed Unix boxes I use I like to see the IP addresses so I remember which network the interface is connected to. I'm not so worried about the host I want to capture to/from (which typically is available via multiple network paths anyway) but the network. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
