Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] tshark: Read filters were specified both with "-R" and with additional command

[Alan Tu <8libra@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm. There are a few things at play. First, your shell environment
interprets the command and arguments. Then Tshark does it too.

I am pretty certain that the display filter needs to be quoted so that
the shell will treat that whole thing as one argument. That's the way
I run my scripts.

You may want to try putting a backslash in front of the @ sign and see
if Tshark likes it better.

Try testing using a simple query (no and clauses), once you have that
working, then build the complex queries.
