Hi folks, More and more ieee802.11 extensions are starting to include IEs that have different formats depending on whether or not they are S1G frames, DMG frames or HE frames. To handle these things more correctly, I am planning on adding a per-STA hash that allows me to record what type of STA we are dealing with. The type would be recorded when we first detect the type, typically when processing BEACON frames. When we need to dissect frames in ways that are different depending on the actual type of STA transmitting the frames I will check the STA in the hash to see how to correctly dissect the frames. -- Regards, Richard Sharpe (何以解憂?唯有杜康。--曹操)(传说杜康是酒的发明者) ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
