So is the Ethernet port of the MDS 9000 Port Analyzer Adapter:

directly plugged into an Ethernet port on the machine running Ethereal?

plugged into a hub into which an Ethernet port on the machine running
Ethereal is also plugged?

plugged into a switch into which an Ethernet port on the machine
running Ethereal is also plugged?

NOTE: not everything called a "hub" is a hub; some are switches. See

That's for display filters, which don't affect what traffic you capture.

A *display* filter for Fibre Channel traffic would be "fc", not "FC".

A *capture* filter for it would either be

ether proto 0xfcfc

or

ether proto 0

assuming that the encapsulation dissected by the "MDS Header"
dissector is the one used by the Port Analyzer Adapter.
