Hi,

This patch adds support for the Juniper NetScreen snoop output format. It takes
a text-dump op the captured packets and parses the headers and hex-data. Since
the snoop files on a Junpiper NetScreen can be saved to a tftp-server, this
patch makes it quite easy to use the snoop function of the Juniper NetScreen
firewalls.

The patch was build and tested on FC4.

Here are the TODO's I can think of at this point in time to enhance this patch
even further, but for now, it would be great to have this file-format added to
the already large lists of file-formats that Wireshark already supports.

/* XXX TODO:
 *
 * o  Create a wiki-page with instruction on how to make tracefiles
 *    on Juniper NetScreen devices. Also put a few examples up
 *    on the wiki
 *
 * o  Use the interface names to properly detect the encapsulation
 *    type (ie adsl packets are now not properly dissected)
 *
 * o  Pass the interface names and the traffic direction to either
 *    the frame-structure, a pseudo-header or use PPI. This needs
 *    to be discussed on the dev-list first
 *
 */

Cheers,


Sake
