Hey all,

I am working on a protocol dissector that has a dynamic UDP port number.
This port number is selected at connections setup time, the client sends
a connect message that has a port number in it. That port number is used
by the server to send async messages. The question is how can i setup
things so that the traffic to that port are also handled by my
dissector?. Especially since in one longer trace there might be one or
more disconnects and so that port number might keep changing. 

Any suggestions, or pointers to other protocols that have something like
to to look at are welcomed.

TIA,
Erwin
