Hello,
following setup:
We have some captured RANAP data, they were captured and presented by some
proprietary analyzer over the common stack (i.e. AAL-5,
SCCOP,MTP3b,SCCP, RANAP). It is possible to store the data in plain
text format.
I have seen in the mailing list archive that someone has experimented
with text2pcap +
some heavy modifications of the protocols below RANAP, so that it looks like
RANAP on top of SIGTRAN but as I understood, ethereal crashed and
the versions of MTP3 was set to Chinese etc.
So, questions: Were some generalization work done that would alow to put
the SIGTRAN protocols below the text version of  captured protocols
like RANAP how ever one needs them? Could someone share his experiences
about using text2pcap for purposes like described above?
