Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Dissector for a custom protocol which starts as HTTP
Hello,
in the Wireshark GUI did you try the "Decode As" functionality ? You
get it in the right-clic on a packet (or in Analyze menu). You also
can have a look at Analyze -> Enabled protocols.
see : https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChUseAnalyzeMenuSection.html
