In what way would your dissector use this information? Implementations of the protocol your dissector is dissecting cannot, on most if not all OSes, see the ack number, as TCP just presents to protocol implementations running atop it a sequenced data stream, with no TCP segment boundaries or sequence or acknowledgment numbers visible. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
