           Summary: Adding heuristic dissector code to Ethernet Powerlink
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 1.5.x (Experimental)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Low
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: rknall@xxxxxxxxx

Patch, which removes both EPL and EPLv1 .h files, as well as adding a heuristic
dissector hook to EPL (v1 is nearly nowhere in use anymore, therefore not
needed)

Build Information:
TShark 1.5.1 (SVN Rev 36187 from /trunk)

Copyright 1998-2011 Gerald Combs <gerald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> and contributors.

Compiled (64-bit) with GLib 2.26.1, with libpcap 1.1.1, with libz 1.2.3.4, with
POSIX capabilities (Linux), without libpcre, with SMI 0.4.8, with c-ares 1.7.3,
with Lua 5.1, without Python, with GnuTLS 2.8.6, with Gcrypt 1.4.5, with MIT
Kerberos, with GeoIP.

Running on Linux 2.6.35-27-generic, with libpcap version 1.1.1, with libz
1.2.3.4.

Built using gcc 4.4.5.
--
To enable another protocol to dissect the object before the EPL dissector does,
a heuristic dissector hook is added to the code.

As a side-result, no more headers are needed for EPL and EPLv1

Also, "Ethernet POWERLINK V2" has been renamed to "Ethernet POWERLINK", as the
version determination is not part of the official IEC Recommendation.
