Please look at the attached capture. It consists of VRRPv3 packets over IPv4.
RFC 5798 is very clear about VRRPv3 supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 and how the
structure of the VRRPv3 packet looks like. If you look at any of the packets in
this capture via Wireshark, you'll see that the sniffer declares the packet as
malformed. I suspect that when the VRRP version is set to 3, the VRRP dissector
always tries to parse the associated IP section of the packet as IPv6 addresses
and because of that it fails when this section holds IPv4 addresses. With
VRRPv3 packets carrying IPv6 associated IPs, Wireshark correctly parses the
associated IPs section of the packet.
