Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] packet-cops.c update for PacketCable - patch

[Dick Gooris <gooris@xxxxxxxxxx>]

*,

Hereby I am providing the packet-cops.patch generated via :

           #cvs diff packet-cops.c > packet-cops.patch

This file is in the attached file called packet-cops.zip

With this patch, we will be able to decode PacketCable tables as well. 
Then you need to set the port number to 2126, and check the button 
'Decode as PacketCable clients' underneath the Preferences --> COPS  
protocol settings.

I wrote a dedicated function called cops_to_disp_fmt() to print various 
data in a formatted way. This in combination with a subtree function 
cops_to_subtree() gives you the possibility to write decoding functions 
in which you can recognize the tables, amount of octets and information 
from the tables you sometimes have to type over from the protocol specs. 
Example of such a function  is cops_gate_specs(). 

Could anyone check this in please, or what is the process ??
