What do you mean by "frame level decoding" and "packet level decoding"? We currently treat DOCSIS as a link-layer protocol, as that's how it appears in the capture files we support; there's no other protocol in which it's encapsulated. > Has anyone ran across IP / DOCSIS packets in the same packet stream? One of the sample captures that were sent out by, I think, the author of the DOCSIS dissector contains IP packets that have DOCSIS link-layer headers, as well as other non-IP packets (such as MAC management packets) that also have DOCSIS link-layer headers. > Any suggestions on how to decode them both currently? Ethereal decodes that capture correctly (if you've turned on the "treat everything as DOCSIS" flag).
