For the part of packet-isakmp.c, which deals with
dissecting VID payloads, you may want to import VID
values from Super FreeS/WAN sources (which has about
20+ entries, freeswan.ca) or from the list that yours
truly hosts at

"Import" as in "copy into the source", or "import" as in "make the
ISAKMP dissector get them from a file, and put the interesting VID
values into the file"?  I'd be inclined to do the latter, although we
might want to put in some form of wildcarding so we can handle, for
example, Check Point's VIDs (show some as particular versions, others as
unknown versions).


Whichever you like better I guess :) I did mean the first option
though, but that's mostly because existing VIDs are hardcoded, so
it would've been a consistent way to 'import' new ones.
