L&G 8979 is an proprietary industrial protocol that was popular in the 1980's
with Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) sold by Landis & Gyr.  It provided electrical
utilities with remote monitoring and control functionality over these units and
included full SCADA functionality for many substations.

As Landis & Gyr shifted out of the RTU market, many customers were left with
legacy systems that they had difficult interfacing to modern SCADA systems.  To
fill the gap to this day, many protocol converter products are available that
offer L&G 8979 conversion to open-standard protocols like DNP3 and Modbus.

This dissector specifically covers the implementation of this protocol in the
SEL RTAC family and as-such the necessary extensions have been added to the
rtacser dissector.

Function code support includes master/RTU dissection for:
