Type protocol (0x1a42, 0x19f0, 0x901a, 0xf735, 0x5847, etc) info ethernet II

Question

I want to analizy the captured traffic, but I can't to find what kind of protocol I have. The wireshark is looking bad, it shows:

Address: 1a:42:00:24:00:1e (1a:42:00:24:00:1e)
Source: 1a:42:00:24:00:1e (1a:42:00:24:00:1e)
  .... ...0 .... .... .... .... = IG bit: Individual address (unicast)
  .... ..1. .... .... .... .... = LG bit: Locally administered address (this is NOT the factory default)
Type: Unknown (0x5847)

What does the protocol type it can be?

It looks as though the data link type in your capture is wrong, I doubt this is an Ethernet capture.

Wrong ? What is wrong in my capture ?

Every capture file has a data link type associated with it, to get a starting point for dissection. A lot of captures are done on an Ethernet, but a lot on other types of interfaces too. See here for a list (check for the list of WTAP_ENCAP_ values) for all possible data link types Wireshark understands. You could run the command line tool capinfos to get a better feel for the type of capture you have and post the result here.
