Tracewrangler works great. The only limitation I have bumped into is that it can only remove single VLAN tag. Use editcap to remove multiple VLAN tags.

Glad to hear it worked great for you and maybe @Jasper can add Q-in-Q (or rather, recursive) vlan scrubbing :-)

I'll have to check into that - Tracewrangler can parse stacked VLAN tags but maybe I forgot to actually add code to remove them...

Why would people want to anonymise VLAN tags? Frankly, why would people want also to remove private ip addresses? Is there any reason why you would want to anonymise anything else than mac address and payload?
