--- Comment #2 from Stephen Fisher <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 2011-01-07 17:21:50 MST ---
This will require extra code in the core of Wireshark to handle the prefix
length/mask handling like we do for field type IPv4 now (epan/ipv4.[ch] and
epan/ftypes/ftype-ipv4.[ch]).  The issue is that we currently treat the IPv6
field type as a FT_BYTES with a few minor differences.  I'm working on breaking
it out into its own type like IPv4.
