DLC Layer Expert Detail Display with 802.11 Information
The Expert creates objects at the DLC layer with 802.11 information based on
the DLC addresses in the 802.11 traffic it observes. If the original source or
final destination address in an 802.11 frame is a traditional wired station, the
Expert creates a DLC layer object with 802.11 information in its Detail Display.
A separate object is created for each DLC address observed (including
multicast and broadcast addresses).
