Hi,

I've been making Protocol Analyzer based on Sangoma S5142A synch serial
card and WireShark. Capturing of X.25 LAPB and PLP layers is done by
Sangoma card/driver. Storing into file is done by socket based code.
File format is libpcap file format.

 

I've seen that WireShark  ( wtap)  has decoder for LAPB and PLP layers
of the original X.25.

 

Problem is that libpcap "DLT_    " definitions doesn't have value for
LAPB link layer. So, when I opened captured file by WireShark, I can see
only raw data.

 

I think that I should define proprietary "DLT_LAPB" value and do
whatever necessary steps in wtap (WireShark) in order to recognize my
DLT_LAPB type form libpcap file header. After that I should be able to
see LAPB frames and PLP packets in the WireShark. 

 

Is above story about new DLT_LAPB and wtap extension is correct?

 

 

Regards

 

Mirko Karanovic.
