Currently, the spec says that in a "Target PDU with CC data", the "Data size" 
field is the "Size of CC data encoded using the value from Df_type field 
(UINT32 field)" and the "Data" field is the "Raw CC packet data".

The "Df_type" field has values:

        0x01    Libpcap File Format (PCAP)
        0x02    ASN.1 Basic Encoding Rules (BER)
        0x03    ELEE Encapsulation

What do those values mean in this context?

For a value of 0x01, does that mean that the "Raw CC packet data" contains a 
pcap record:

        https://www.tcpdump.org/manpages/pcap-savefile.5.html

with a time stamp, captured data length, and on-the-network data length, 
followed by packet data?  If so, what indicates the time stamp resolution and 
the link-layer type of the packet data?

Presumably 0x02 means BER-encoded ASN.1 data according to some ETSI 
specification, as per

> great detail by using ASN.1 notation which is then encoded using

What ETSI specification is that?

And what does 0x03 mean?  If it's an "ELEE Encapsulation", it would presumably 
need to be defined by the ELEE spec itself, but it's not currently defined in 
that spec.
