The * common example has been dumping MTP3 into a file without, well, MTP2 or * M2PA. * * We want to store these protocols directly in PCAP file format because * it's well defined and there isn't another (popular) file format for * capturing SS7 messages that we can reverse engineer (and we want to read * these files into Ethereal). Rather than creating a new file format, it's * a lot easier to just allocate a LINKTYPE_. * * Here is the original post thread: * * http://ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200306/threads.html#00200 * * July's thread on the subject: * * http://ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200307/threads.html#00124 * * August's thread: * * http://ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200308/threads.html#00193 * * * and one of the last messages--which is why I'm mailing you today: * * http://ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200308/msg00193.html * * * Based on the message in the last URL, I'd like to request a new * LINKTYPE_: LINKTYPE_RAWSS7. * * This packets in this file type will contain a header: */ typedef struct _rawss7_hdr { /* NOTE: These are in network-byte order. */ guint32 type; guint16 length; guint16 spare; } rawss7_hdr; /* * * followed by protocol data for whatever protocol 'type' indicates. * * There was some discussion about these protocol 'type's being allocated by * tcpdump-workers as well. In fact it would be handy to have one place to * allocate such numbers, so what do you think about allocating 3 more (for * now) LINKTYPE_'s: */ #define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_MTP2 140 #define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_MTP3 141 #define LINKTYPE_RAWSS7_SCCP 142 /* * * There is no reason this can't be used to store non-SS7 protocols, but * it's what we need to use it for now... * */
