In IANA the two IPv4 protocols are defined:
35 IDPR Inter-Domain Policy Routing Protocol
45 IDRP Inter-Domain Routing Protocol
http://www.iana.org/assignments/protocol-numbers/protocol-numbers.xhtml
However, in Wireshark, they are named:
{ IP_PROTO_IDPR, "Interdomain routing" }, /* 35 IDPR Inter-Domain Policy
Routing Protocol [Martha_Steenstrup] */
{ IP_PROTO_IDRP, "IDRP" }, /* 45 IDRP Inter-Domain Routing
Protocol [Sue_Hares] */
Which is somewhat confusing.
I think IDPR should be named "Inter-Domain Policy Routing".
And IDRP should be named "Inter-Domain Routing Protocol".
Right now, IDPR is called "Interdomain routing" which can be confused with
IDRP.
