hi,

i feel that the ITU-T TCAP decoding is broken in Ethereal v0.10.12.
while Ethereal is successfully able to decode a pcap file containing
IS-41 MAP operations (so obviously ANSI TCAP is working fine).

the pcap files tried are the one which are available on:-
http://wiki.ethereal.com/SampleCaptures

while I do not remember with absolutely certainity, but i think the
camel.pcap file used to work on an Ethereal version which was about
3-4 gens older. i mean the one available here:-
http://wiki.ethereal.com/SampleCaptures?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=camel.pcap

What problem are you seeing with the decoding of that capture file? I just looked at it (briefly) and didn't see any problems.

Note, though, that the CAMEL messages in that capture file are on a non-standard SSN (200) so you need to change the TCAP and CAMEL SSN preferences to include SSN==200.

(Of course the MTP3 standard has to be set to ITU, too.)
