Hello, I got a new DLT_ value for raw LAPD from tcpdump.org i.e 203;
I was advised earlier by the WireShark Dev as below __________________________________________________________ > If you can't use the Linux LAPD DLT (even by faking the headers?) __________________________________________________________ Where Can I know how to fake the headers? If I know that would be easy for me, since I dont need to change the wiretap library and wireshark code. _________________________________________________________ >then you'd have to: >- ask tcpdump.org to allocate a new DLT value for raw LAPD >- patch the wiretap/ library to support the new DLT value (bug 1751 >contains a patch that shows how to do this) >- patch packet-lapd.c to register for the new linktype (by adding >another "dissector_add() call) __________________________________________________________ I went through this bug, http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=953&action=view According to this there are some changes that I need to do to the wtap.c/wtap.h Can I please know the connection between wiretap library and the libpcap library. Cant I anyhow wait without changing the wiretap library. I thought it is a substitute for libpcap. Is libpcap just on of the types that wireshark Understand? Thanks Varuna
