10.5.1. Interface Options
In the “Capture” preferences it is possible to configure several options for the interfaces available on
your computer. Select the “Capture” pane and press the Edit button. In this window it is possible to
change the default link-layer header type for the interface, add a comment or choose to hide a interface
from other parts of the program.
Figure 10.8. The interface options dialog box
Each row contains options for each interface available on your computer.
Device: the device name provided by the operating system.
Description: provided by the operating system.
Default link-layer: each interface may provide several link-layer header types. The default link-
layer chosen here is the one used when you first start Wireshark. It is also possible to change this
value in Section 4.5, “The “Capture Options” dialog box” when you start a capture. For a detailed
description, see Section 4.12, “Link-layer header type”.
Comment: a user provided description of the interface. This comment will be used as a description
instead of the operating system description.
