I was thinking along those lines. There is something I can look for, and I see where I would need to add some code to make the choice just having a little trouble in working out how I register this 'new' protocol (do I need to?).

Currently I have this;
void
proto_reg_handoff_dssp(void)
{
        dissector_handle_t dssp_handle;
       
        dssp_handle = create_dissector_handle(dissect_dssp, proto_dssp);
        dissector_add("tcp.port", 80, dssp_handle);
}

Which obviously does not work when I have http port set to 80.

Cheers

Giles

If there is some reliable way to identify your protocol from http, then all you have to do is put a check in the http dissector to identify your protocol, then if the packet is yours, call your subdissector.

               I'm not even going to ignore that.
