Hi,

This is an interesting snippet from the dissecor source code

8<-----------------
 * The plugin operates both offline with libpcap files and online on supported
 * platforms. Live dissection is currently available for Linux-IrDA
 * (irda.sourceforge.net) and for Windows if the Linux-IrDA port IrCOMM2k
 * (www.ircomm2k.de) is installed.
 */

Haven't used it myself though.

Good luck,
Jaap
