Dear all,

I'm new in Wireshark and I'm trying to sniff IPMI packets throught a
i2c bus.

To do this I need to compile a plugin which has been previously
developed in the context of (https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1970 ) .

Actually, my first question is why do I need to add this plugin if
wireshark already cames out with a ipmb dissector?

Well, I wouldn't think that you need to.  The "new" (compared to that
in bug 1970) IPMI dissector stuff is built-in (see
epan/dissectors/packet-*ipmi*).

Why do you think you need to add the plugin?

Matteo: If your data isn't decoded correctly, did you set

Edit / Preferences / Protocols / I2C / Bus/Data type

to IPMB? I guess it defaults to "None (raw i2c)".

Regards,

   Martin
