Hi Jeff,

Thanks for pointing that out. I had ensured that atleat MTP3 is
decoded as ITU-T, but beyond that Ethereal doesn't seem to give me a
way to make any explicit choices. I am attaching a GIF of the
screenshot of ethereal that contains what I can see. As you'd see all
I can see is upto SCCP level, not even TCAP. So unless I am able to
highlight TCAP I don't think I'd be able to set preference, isn't that
so?

regards,
bdutta
