--- Comment #8 from Bill Meier <wme...@newsguy.com> 2011-01-21 10:07:40 EST --- (In reply to comment #7) Some comments after doing a bit more research (see inline comments). > > That being said & following up on the info Chris provided I'm guessing that > ISMP messages (and their possible payloads) are obsolete[1] and thus further > resolving this issue is not necessary or useful. Looking at the specs for several of the current Entersys switch products (www.enterasys.com) I see that several of the switches support "Cabletron Discovery Protocol". So: I guess the protocol is not actually obsolete. > > [1] For example: besides the spec Chris found for an ISMP "type 2" message I > found another spec [RFC] for what appears to be a different format message > with the same type. The above is incorrect; I mis-interpreted RFC 2642. ------- Also: The VLAN Hello (Version 4) message described in RFC 2641 appears to be quite similar to the "Enterasys Discovery Protocol" message dissected by packet-ismp.c (with different names for several of the fields and without the "tuples"). In the attached capture the discovery protocol message has a version of 6. There are references in Entersys Release Note documents to Cabletron Discovery Protocol Version 6 but I was unable to find any specification of V6 of the protocol. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-bugs mailing list <wireshark-bugs@wireshark.org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-bugs Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-bugs mailto:wireshark-bugs-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
