Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] PIM

Thanks Guy ... but I'm a little confused.  I just looked down at
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idmr-pim-spec-02 section 4.2, "PIM
Fixed Header" and the PIM Ver field indicates "Pim Version number is 2."
Section 5 of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idmr-pim-dm-spec-03
also indicates the same.  Did they bump the version in the draft before
PIM became a published RFC ... or is there still some other draft out
there where "Pim Version number is 1."?

- Chris

A bunch of Googling found

	http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idmr-pim-spec-02

and

	http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idmr-pim-dm-spec-03

which appears to be at least part of the spec for PIMv1.  I've updated
the dissector.
