Thanks for the feed back. I saw the Message Session Relay Protocol before but
was hoping they used a different acronym. Some wishful thinking... I will make
the above changes and submit a new patch before the end of the day.

Also, I thought I did submit a couple of sample capture files but my browser
was being dumb yesterday but I'll reload them again in a sec.

I have a link to the spec itself:
http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/private/at-drafts/

The latest version is D6.0 and is what we have our dissector updated to. In
order to access the spec you need to be a member of the IEEE 802.1 Working
Group because the specs are all located in private areas. If you don't have
access because you are not a member, then you can ask the Editor of the spec
for a copy. The editor of the specification is Craig Gunther. He co-wrote the
dissector and is a colleague of mine. You can reqest a copy from him at
<craig.gunther@xxxxxxxxxx>.
