Title: dissector_add
Hello list:
A question on an issue I have been struggling with.
I am adding a dissector for a propietary protocol that is 'packaged' within a 802.1Q VLAN packet. I cannot find the right way to register my dissector. I have been trying to do things like:
dissector_add("802.1Q Virtual LAN.etype", 0x875b, PROTOCOL_handle);
Or
dissector_add("vlan.etype", 0x875b, PROTOCOL_handle);
Or
dissector_add("VLAN.etype", 0x875b, PROTOCOL_handle);
I also have tried with "etype" changed to "Type".
All of which fail because the name (1st parameter) is not found in the dissector_table. I assumed that I could do some operation like this, analgous to how one would access a protocol that ran on a specific udp port, where you could do:
dissector_add("udp.port", 8000, PROTOCOL_handle);
Is something drastically different about how the VLAN dissector is registered?
Any tips appreciated,
Thanks
Dave
