Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Dissecting based on UDP source port

["Stig Bjørlykke" <stig@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

When sending UDP packets we get random source ports, and from MS
Windows they usually starts just above 1024 (the registered ports
range).  Wireshark uses the source port when picking a dissector,
which leads to some wrong dissectors being used (and malformed
packets).  In just a few hours I get this dissectors: ff(1089,1090),
mikey(2269), tpncp, mgcp(2427) and ac_trace, which is not what I want.

Is this a common problem when using MS Windows?
