Hi,
I am having to dissect TLVs for the Label Distribution Protocol.
TLVs in LDP have no alignment requirements, and thus there is no padding
requirements.
I notice that other dissectors have to deal with TLVs, and I would like to
re-use code, but will probably code my own routines to handle TLVs for the
moment, but would like to promote some discussion on this.
I would like to be able to deal with TLV names, and break-out, where
possible, the whole TLV.
I could perhaps have some sort of data structure that is interpreted at run
time, but will hand code things for now.
Regards
