On wireshark(1) they say this works only if you have a libpcap format on
wireshark's STDIN, but in this way you'll have pure ethernet frames.

Does Netkit support uml's vde network?
If it does then you can use the 'pdump' plugin in vde_switch which dumps
all the traffic in pcap format.

Here you can find an example of pdump usage:
