NHRP packets with authentication extension

Build Information:
TShark (Wireshark) 2.1.0-git (v2.1.0rc0-3301-gf7cd537 from unknown)

Dear Wireshark developers,

Although RFC 2332 specifies that NHRP Authentication Extension have to include
Src Addr a variable length field
(https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2332#section-5.3.4.1), Cisco implemented it
without Src Addr field. This leads to incorrect interpretation of
Authentication Extension.

I checked it using classic IOS version [Cisco IOS Software, C2600 Software
(C2600-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 12.4(25d), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)] and using
modern IOS XE version [Cisco IOS Software, CSR1000V Software
(X86_64_LINUX_IOSD-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 15.5(1)S2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)].

The dumped packets from both versions are attached. Authentication string is
"CISCO". Many thanks in advance!
