Disabling unwanted protocols

If Wireshark uses incorrect dissectors to decode a Thread message, you can optionally disable unwanted protocols.

To disable unwanted protocols when capturing data from a Thread network:

  1. In Wireshark, go to Analyze > Enabled Protocols....
  2. In the Enabled Protocols window, disable unwanted protocols by unchecking the field next to their name.
    For example, you might want to disable LwMesh, ZigBee, and ZigBee Green Power.
