Note that if I look at the logical driver objects, it is quite easy to tell what it is - while without this extra information it would be most likely a guessing game. The number 6 is actually the USB device address (USB host assigned during the enumeration address 6 to the device). And it indeed is selectable in Wireshark Qt interface. The actual device I have to select is ' Urządzenie kompozytowe USB' (english: ' composite USB device'). Assume I want to trace the COM4 which is on Black Magic Probe that I have connected to my laptop. There's a whole lot more of the logical driver objects (non-selectable) than the USB devices (selectable).Įxample with picture will make it clear. As usually these logical driver objects hold more understandable description, they are included in the list. Hence it also lists the children which are logical driver objects - not actual USB devices. Note that it is more often than not, really hard to tell from the 'Friendly Name' what device it really is.

Click on this and it becomes highlighted. That is, in the devices list the devices with ' Friendly Name' where X is an number, are corresponding to actual USB devices which you can filter. And that it is indeed possible to make use of selective filtering of devices in Wireshark Qt interface - only it requires really good understanding of the implementation.
