Is there a way to set up protocol forcing? I need to do one of the following: 1) if TCP port = 8473, then ISO-DE

2) if TCP port = 8473, then skip 4, CLNP
For "normal TCP" purposes, you would use the "Decode As" feature.

However, I'm wondering why you'd have to choose at all.

As I'm only familiar with the RFC1006 COTP things (never used the networking layer of ISO), so I might be wrong with the following.

Even ISO-DE should behave similiar to CLNP in that layer (or am I wrong?). So I don't see a *reason* to force a protocol decoding in that case.
