Hello list,
I am aware of the similar exchange on TCP side which ended with following
comment from Guy Harris on 01.09.2016:
"...

This has nothing to do with Lua; it has to do with the way the TCP
dissector handles retransmissions.

If it's a retransmission, the original packet should have been dissected,
so there should be no need to dissect the retransmission.

If it's *not* a retransmission, that's presumably an indication that TCP is
mistakenly identifying it as a retransmission...."

The same behaviour of not decoding retransmission is observable in SCTP
too. However, sometimes it is not genuine retransmission but
double-tapping/double-forwarding from transparent taps, i.e. no changes at
Ethernet/IP level and it would be good to see retransmitted or
"retransmitted" packet decoded.

Are there any plans to make it configurable whether packets marked as
retransmitted are dissected or not ?

Kind Regards

Ariel Burbaickij
