cgivre commented on issue #1946: DRILL-7505: PCAP Plugin Fails on IPv6 Packets
URL: https://github.com/apache/drill/pull/1946#issuecomment-570093777
After looking at the PCAP and PCAP-NG plugins, both of these really do need
some work. I'm going to submit some PRs in the next few weeks for some code
cleanup and general improvements. This is in support of a use case at my
company, but in general, I'd like to consolidate the PCAP and PCAP-NG plugins
into one so that improvements don't have to be duplicated across both plugins.
But... that's not for this PR.

> Fix For: 1.18.0

>
> In its current implementation, the PCAP parser fails with an exception if it
> encounters a protocol it does not have in its enumerated list.
> This is not an acceptable strategy in that there are many protocols out there
> and having Drill crash when it encounters an unknown protocol is not helpful
> or useful. This minor PR makes the PCAP plugin more fault tolerant.
