Does the SocketCan protocol have any indication which protocol is next (CANOpen, DeviceNet, etc)? If so, you can use the call_dissector() to pass a tvbuff to the next dissector (from SocketCan to CANOpen for example). You would "break off" the rest of the packet that SocketCan is dissecting with something like tvb_new_subset() which creates a new tvbuff out of a backing tvbuff based on certain offset and length. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
