Maybe Wireshark could use some heuristics. For example, it could try to dissect
an NLRI as ordinary NLRI and check if it see a next path attribute (known to
Wireshark) or an end of Update message _correctly_. If it would fail - try to
dissect as PathID prefixed NLRI. Just an idea. Thanks.

A prefix length could be 68 bits, for example. It would use 9 bytes for an
address length in NLRI field.



P.S.: I could provide any BGP conversations related to AddPath capability, if
needed.
