Look also at Wireshark Generic Dissector http://wsgd.free.fr Olivier Jaap Keuter a écrit :
Hi, Wireshark is made to be very extensible. Natively its dissectors are written in C, but LUA and, in the development version, Python support is build in as well. This allows you to dissect the protocol data found in the captured frames. Dissectors written in C can be added as plugins to a Wireshark installation, LUA and Python scripts are added through configuration files. Have a look at the documentation provided through the Wireshark webpage.

We capture this data for analysis with tcpdump and analyze it with Wireshark. However, to decode the actual packet data, we have decoder tools we run against the it to get the actual market data (e.g., 300 shares of IBM sold@$85.32). Do any of you know if it's possible to plug into Wireshark a decoder script, possibly written in Perl/Python/C, that will decode the packet data and display in a screen? If we could do this, we can provide our decoder scripts to people not as technically savvy so they wouldn't have to tinker with our individual decoder scripts, but could just go through a familiar Wireshark screen and search through the data. Is this possible?___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
