           Summary: Add support of ERF encapsulation with a specific
                    dissector
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: SVN
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Low
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: florent.drouin@xxxxxxxxxx


Build Information:
Tar file based on SVN 22854
The tar file contains the files modified for the implementation of the new
dissector. This is a first version for test purpose.
--
This is a replacement of the existing decoding of ERF files (Extensible Record
Format from Endace). 
For the decoding of the ERF files, according to the "type of record" given in
the ERF header, several decoders can be used. Up to now, the decoder is
determined according to an environment variable, or with a kind of heuristic.
And, all the treatment is done during the file extraction.

The new architecture, will separate the ERF file decoding, and the ERF record
decoding. The ERF records will be decoded with a specific dissector. This
dissector can be configured with options, to replace the environment variable.
