Note: These coloring rules have been replaced with the MetaGeek Configuration Profile for Wireshark. The full profile has lots of great features, like retry flags and shortcuts to hide frame types. We recommend using the full MetaGeek Configuration Profile, instead of the coloring rules.
Eye P.A. supports exporting wireless packets to Wireshark (because Wireshark is awesome). By default, Wireshark colors all subframe types (management, control, and data frames) the same color.
By importing a coloring rules file & Wireshark download, Wireshark can assign a color to each subframe type to match Eye P.A.'s coloring scheme.
