Field name Description Type Versions; arp.dst.atm_num_e164: Target ATM number (E.164) Character string: 1.0.0 to 3.6.8: arp.dst.atm_num_nsap: Target ATM number (NSAP)
IP: ARP can map IP addresses to layer 2 addresses.
Several viruses send a lot of ARP traffic in an attempt to discover hosts to infect; see the ArpFlooding page.
You will often see ARP packets at the beginning of a conversation, as ARP is the way these addresses are discovered. ARP can be used for Ethernet and other LANs, ATM, and a lot of other underlying physical addresses (the list of hardware types in the ADDRESS RESOLUTION PROTOCOL PARAMETERS document at the IANA Web site includes at least 33 hardware ...
These special ARP pack ets are referred to as Gratuitous_ARP s and Wireshark will detect and flag the most common versions of such ARPs in the packet summary pane.
Capturing only ARP packets is rarely used, as you won't capture any IP or other packets. However, it can be useful as part of a larger filter string.

For the source port, it is a completely different story. As transport layer connections usually use ports for multiplexing/demultiplexing on both source and destination, every connection must also have a source port. The lower port numbers can not be used for this purpose, as on one hand, they are often used for listening services, and on the other hand, their usage is privileged on some operating systems, so normal users cannot use them at all. For this reasons, IANA assigned the port range from 49152 to 65535 (2^15+2^14 to 2^ (16−1)) for that purpose. Most operating systems will select one of this ports for outgoing connections source port. The selection is, however, short lived - when the connection is closed, the port is released, and the next connection can use an other port.
The reasoning behind the well defined port numbers is, that services can only listen on specific ports, and if the numbers were known by convention, you had to memorize them along with the server adress. For your example, HTTP, that means, that if you start a request for http://www.example.com, your browser (or other software) knows that http usually uses port 80, connects to that port to get the html page. You can still run http servers on different ports (say, 12345), but than, the user had to enter http://www.example.com:12345 to reach the server. You can see that using well defined ports is helpful here.
Wireshark at Pc is capturing correct data but showing wrong destinatiin address why??? Destination address shown at wireshark is 1.0.168.192

When upper layer protocols communicate with each other, data flows down the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layers and is encapsulated into a Layer 2 frame. The frame composition is dependent on the media access type. For example, if the upper layer protocols are TCP and IP and the media access is Ethernet, then the Layer 2 frame encapsulation will be Ethernet II. This is typical for a LAN environment.
From the terminal on H3, ping the default gateway and stop after send 5 echo request packets.
The Wireshark main window is divided into three sections: the Packet List pane (top), the Packet Details pane (middle), and the Packet Bytes pane (bottom). If you selected the correct interface for packet capturing in Step 3, Wireshark should display the ICMP information in the Packet List pane of Wireshark, similar to the following example.
The Wireshark capture below shows the packets generated by a ping being issued from a PC host to its default gateway. A filter has been applied to Wireshark to view the ARP and ICMP protocols only. The session begins with an ARP query for the MAC address of the gateway router, followed by four ping requests and replies.
In the terminal window for Node: H3, enter arp -n to display the content of the ARP cache.
Compare these addresses to the addresses you received in Step 5. The only address that changed is the destination IP address.
The last two lines displayed in the middle section provide information about the data field of the frame. Notice that the data contains the source and destination IPv4 address information.
"Source Address" or "SA" is the MAC of the original sender of the frame .
So, original source (SA), final destination (DA), and the immediate sending/receiving systems (TA/RA) are four different MACs. Formal definitions would be found in the 802.11 standard itself:
Yes, different types of frames will have different MAC fields. The formal breakdown of all 802.11 messages and their expected formats is broken down in section 8.3 in the most recent 802.11 spec paper (from that link above), where frames such as ACK and CTS have only the RA address field included.
If you want to show the MAC addresses, or the names corresponding to the MAC addresses, in the columns in the packet summary, go to Edit -> Preferences, select "Columns", and for the "Source" and "Destination" columns, select "Hardware src addr" and "Hardware dest addr", respectively .
The hosts file is used for this purpose, not the ethers file.
(No, Wiresha rk does not automatically map MAC addresses to host names.)
