Well perhaps the generated traces can be used to initially check the dissector implementation
and you can use your private traces to check the result?
Given a trace with a CDR and a interpretation of the CDR in the trace I could try to take a look at the asn1 part
if time permits. The asn1 code from 3GPP TS 32.298 should be used right?

Anders

Hi,
A possibility for a trace is to save (a) packet(s) in text format and then edit the sensetive
information and use tex2pcap to recreate the .pcap file but it's a bit cumbersome.

Anders

Thanks Anders, I will begin my task...

Okay, I will leave the hook there then, although possibly change it's
name. I'm using gtpp as name e.g. packet-gtpp.c so probably gtppcdr.

I'm limited in my ability to share traces that I get from others because
they contain information from their network (phone numbers, IMSIs, etc).
I can generate them myself using open-cgf and it's test tool but this
isn't yet a good basis to build another implementation of (sort of like
building a house using a square you built yourself).

I'll think about the possibilities, I would like to get a trace up onto
the wiki.

Regards,
Bruce
