Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Extending the DHCP dissector

Hello,

I'm interested in extending the DHCP dissector to decode a vendor specific DHCP option. What is the recommended process for this? Is it possible to write a plugin that can be called for this option by the BOOTP/DHCP dissector, or would I have to actually modify the BOOTP dissector to accomplish this?

thanks,

John
