Hello all,

Can anyone please explain me the significance of pinfo->fd->flags.visited. I 
know that this variable is set to TRUE if a packet has been visited once but if 
we click on the same packet then why all things are done again? Logically if a 
frame has been dissected once, it should not be checked again, so condition 
"if(pinfo->fd->flags.visited == FALSE)" should always be checked before doing 
the dissection. Why the need of re-dissecting the frame over and over again?

My second doubt is that in RLC, if duplicity has already been checked then why 
to check it again? I mean should the duplicity function be covered under 
"if(pinfo->fd->flags.visited == FALSE)"?


Thanks
Vishnu Bhatt
