hello experts,

is it possible to inroduce an modified INAP dissector in parallel to the already existing INAP dissector (for example as plugin).
then INAP could be dissected as usual and if needed the modified INAP by enabling the new protocol and disabling the original INAP.
we have to use the same TCAP SSNs (106,241)!
i expect modifying the existing INAP dissector will work anyway.
but then only this dissector can be used...
hope this can be answered.
thx

What's the reason for having a parallel dissector?
version issues, proprietary add-ons, ...
Perhaps it's possible to combine the dissectors, they could probably co-exists
(with slightly different names ) as ssn should be configurable.
Best regards
Anders
