Hello All,
 
When using ethereal to parse Diameter messages, a couple of bugs have been noticed:
 
As a minor issue, a number of AVP codes are unrecognized...
    (257) Host IP address
    (264) Host name
    (291) Authorization lifetime
    (293) Destination NAI
 
A slightly more important issue relates to the parsing of Home-Agent-MIP-Answer messages.  The Diameter header is parsed fully, but the Attribute value pairs list is not expandable.  The hex dump does show the AVPs, which appear to be correct, but it seems as though ethereal is unable to begin parsing the AVP data.  I have attached the dump in (in libpcap format) for assistance.
 
Thanks,
