Re: Should payload dissectors' (RTP) packets depend on call-setup dissectors' (SIP) packets?

Are you saying that the correct frame is currently not tagged or that it may not always be or...?
(Simplified) In SIP there is an offer answer model the offer contains a list of possible codecs and perhaps ports The answer contains the choices acceptable by the receiver finally the offerer starts sending on one of the available choices and the receiver sends on one of the offered channels. A RE-INVITE could contain new choices. Currently we are setting up conversations on both the offer and answer I think.
This causes misinterpretation of the RTP content at times.

I suppose I should find a sample capture and try it out.

Anyway: good idea, bad idea?

Hi,

Yes, that setup frame should be sufficient. The problem now is that not the correct setup frame is tagged, but that is another matter. Point is case is the SIP/SDP packet defining the conversation, to which the RTP dissector is set.
Thanks,

One of the more frequently asked questions/reported bugs is users filtering for RTP, saving^W exporting those displayed packets, then opening the new capture file only to find plain UDP. This is because the call-setup protocol (e.g., SIP) wasn't included in the display filter.

Now we have the ability to mark frames as dependent on others. Should, for example, RTP frames mark the call-setup frames as dependencies? (I noticed that RTP has a Setup Frame field; would one frame really be enough?) ___________________________________________________________________________
