I am developing a simple application which uses EPAN library and I have a
problem with H248 protocol (binary MEGACO). H248 dissector does not decode
packets.
I have attached the file with sample binary MEGACO data (signaling only). I
am sure it is really binary MEGACO data.
In Ethereal GUI (version 0.99, Windows binary downloaded from site) I cannot
decode those packets as H248. But my application decodes it with errors.
It is an example of decoded frame 5 from attached file:
H.248 MEGACO
mess
version: 1
mId: domainName (2)
domainName
name: company1.com
portNumber: 2945
messageBody: transactions (1)
transactions: 1 item
Item: transactionRequest (0)
transactionRequest
transactionId: 1
actions: 1 item
Item
contextId: Null Context(0)
contextRequest
BER Error: Wrong field in SEQUENCE expected class:2
(CONTEXT) tag:3 but found class:2 tag:1
BER Error: This field lies beyond the end of the known
sequence definition.
Looks like BER decoder does not decode sequences correctly. Unfortunately, I
do not understand code well enough to make a patch but I think that the
problem is around line packet-ber:1193 .
I made a quick experiment: changed (len==0) to (len!=0) and dissector
stopped reporting BER errors. It seems to work but I'm afraid of putting new
serious bug with this change.
Would you explain how to get it work in Ethereal GUI and how to correct
dissector code (in case it is dissector problem)?
