Thanks.
Exactly we need something. I thought, we can have
The approach:
External plugin register for UDP port 65534
Then Call external RRC dissector.
Your suggestions:
External plugin register for UDP port 65534
Then Call builtin RRC dissector.
I am fine with your approach, any samples code/ link, so we happy to start with

So you are definitely taking the wrong approach.
You could create a custom plugin registering on a given UDP port that would extract the from the UDP payload some meta data identifying the LTE RRC channel and the message payload, then calling the right dissector. All are registered by name (as seen in packet-lte-rrc.c)
and can be called from a plugin.
You should not try to duplicate LTE RRC code.

version of Wirehsark, rather than making a plugin. Or you will need to copy / paste plenty of code in your own plugin, but that could collide with the embedded dissector.
