Are you trying to extend Wireshark to read the proprietary sniffer's 
dump format and/or write a dissector for this data as already captured?

Hi,

I have already written the Dissector, that could read the ZigBee frames like 
they are defined in the 802.15.4 IEEE standard.
But as I don´t know much about C my first version takes it, that the whole 
protocol works on UDP.
It would be nice, to get a real data stream, but for now I am working with a 
dump and the IEEE standard (considering the fields, the proprietary sniffer 
left out) to add all fields and informations given in the Frame.

As it is a work for my university, they first of all want to see something up 
and working, but I hope to finish the implementation on the right layers in 
time to come.


Regards
Jan Kokott

[Wireshark-dev] help for a 802.15.4 dissector

2007-01-11 Thread Jan Kokott
Hi,

as it seems, no one started a dissector for ZigBee Packages.
I am still building up my compiler and environment, to accept and compile 
.nmake files.
As far as I understand it, the libpcap/winpcap can´t read 802.15.4 
data-streams. With one of the proprietary Sniffers I have some Dumps, which I 
saved to disk.Now I am trying to write a dissector for it.

Is there anything else in addition to the skeleton body from the 
README.developer that could help building a dissector for the Phy and Mac 
Layers of 802.15.4 ?
I am kind of new to the C Development but have to do this work for my 
university.

So long   Jan
