I'd like to request a new DLT assignment: #define DLT_FIREWIRE xxx /* simplified IEEE1394 interface */
The DLT_FIREWIRE device uses an ethernet-like header:
#define FIREWIRE_EUI64_LEN 8 struct firewire_header { u_char firewire_dhost[FIREWIRE_EUI64_LEN]; u_char firewire_dhost[FIREWIRE_EUI64_LEN]; u_short firewire_type; /* ether type */ };
That's not the raw GASP stuff mentioned in RFC 2734, so we might want to give it a name indicating that, just as there's a DLT_IP_OVER_FC that isn't raw Fibre Channel.
Is that header likely to be used by other IP-over-1394 implementations on OSes that support libpcap? Or is it specific to the Apple implementation? If it's the latter, the name should perhaps mention Apple.
