so i think it is so pity , it will be better if yours can support this command .


We *do* support the SETUP Q.931 command.

"Short Frame" generally means either that
1) when the trace was captured, the analyzer doing the capturing was doing "packet slicing", saving no more than the first N bytes of a capture 

or
2) some higher-level packet was split across multiple link-layer packets, and reassembly wasn't done (that *should* report "Unreassembled packet", or perhaps "Malformed frame", but sometimes, for some reason, we report that as "Short frame").
We'd have to see a capture that shows the "Short Frame" error to see which of those it was.
