Thanks for Guy Harris's help. I need to create a plugin to dissect a company
proprietary protocol in which has packets with SNMP syntax.

It's not just SNMP running on a different port, or running directly over
Ethernet or running on IPX, or something like that, right?  I.e., it
shouldn't, for example, be marked as SNMP in the Protocol column, and
the top-level protocol tree item shouldn't be for SNMP?
