Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Should labels in the tree view for the 802.11ad dissector additions conform to the spec?

 

Hi folks,

 

I notice, as in the attached screen shot, that the 802.11ad dissector additions label the field that the spec (available for free from http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/download/802.11ad-2012.pdf) calls the Control Frame Extension simply as the Extension.

 

While it could be considered obvious, I tend to believe that it should conform fully to the spec.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Although no screen shot attached, I agree using the name from the spec is the way to go.

Regards

Anders
