1	The Linux 'all' interface doesn't provide that information in its cooked capture, therefore it can't be presented. A simultaneous capture into pcap-ng would allow for this, but that hasn't been developed, yet. link answered 05 Feb '11, 01:07 Jaap ♦ 6.0k●5●68 accept rate: 11%

0	Not even minor number of interfaces? Shame. link answered 05 Feb '11, 01:47 Witek 6●1●1●3 accept rate: 0%

0	If you have multiple interfaces and want to keep traffic separated, just launch multiple instances of dumpcap and capture from each interface to a separate file. You can merge later if you need to using mergecap. link answered 05 Feb '11, 16:26 martyvis 611●1●4●18 accept rate: 7%
