Hi all, I am wondering if any one knows about a generic parser which takes a packet (mbuf) of a certain protocol (e.g RSVP ) as input and generates some data structre representing the packet ?
I've been searching for a while and found that ethereal and tcpdump for example use specific data structres and functions to dissect each protocol packets. Is this the only approach possible ? My supervisor suggested using a TLV (Type/Length/Value) approach instead. Any opinions about that? If no such a parser exists is there any practical reason why ?
