I'm attempting to do the same on my own dissector but I'm not to sure on what to use for the second argument of dissector_add. (TCP dissector uses IP_PROTO_TCP)

The IP Header of my packet contains 0xC8 for the Protocol Type. Can I do dissector_add("ip.proto", 0xC8, myprotocol_handle); to instruct wireshark to call my dissector if an IP protocol type of 0xC8 is encountered?
