The parts that don´t correspond to a PPP packet are AT commands or responses (like "ATI", "AT+CSQ" or "+CSQ: 18,99"). This content is interpreted and displayed as raw text in the Wireshark subtree for the payload/information of a packet. These commands and responses don´t need to be dissected.
...lthough it might be interesting information, so it might be worth showing it as text. For link-layer types that don't correspond to published standards, I like to have a description in bpf.h, so that people know how to dissect the link-layer header (and know not to use the link-layer type if the header isn't exactly the same); should I just describe the holes as "other data", so you're not constrained to forever make them all be AT command/response text, or is it guaranteed (now and forever) to be AT-command-or-response text?- This is the tcpdump-workers list.
