Hi list

Nothing on TV tonight so I implemented a new dissector instead.

MRDISC : Milticast Router DISCovery protocol
This protocol is implemented ontop of IGMPv2/v3.
The draft for this protocol has recently been handed to iesg for evaluation.
See ietf working group idmr (under routing area) for the draft
specification.

The attached capture was created using text2pcap since I currently have no
access to any
implementation of MRDISC.

The file packet-igmp.c has a new define:
#define MC_ALL_ROUTERS 0xe0000002
defines the multicast wellknown address ALL_(ipv4)_ROUTERS. There are
probably better places
to put this define but I dont know where.


best regards
