I assume this is the card you'd asked about earlier in "LTE over AAL2"?

I assume also that you've modified libpcap to handle that card, and to use 
DLT_ERF as its link-layer type.

If so, you'd need to put ERF headers before the packet data; do you have the 
ERF documentation from Endace?  If not, I have a copy I can send you.  (Note to 
Endace: put the document back up, in an obvious place; as ERF format and 
DLT_ERF format can be read by open-source tools, don't keep it secret.)

The next step would be to extend the ATM dissector to have additional options 
for the packet type of AAL2 traffic; currently the only types offered are "raw 
data" and "UMTS FP".  If you're getting multiple types of traffic on different 
channels, that would require more work to support setting the traffic type for 
specific channels.
