Subject: If the user specifies an Ethernet address in an expression such as
X-Git-Tag: libpcap-0.6.1~30
X-Git-Url: https://git.tcpdump.org/libpcap/commitdiff_plain/e20bbc40f78e45fb4ab53eb03323392248fe1944

If the user specifies an Ethernet address in an expression such as
"ether host XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX", but the device on which you're capturing
isn't a device with Ethernet-style link-layer addresses, report
"ethernet addresses supported only on ethernet, FDDI or token ring", not
"ethernet address used in non-ether expression", as the error.
