This is an enhancement request to support IPDR decodes. I can provide captures
if it would be helpful. Below is a response to an email which provides some
information as well.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide and thanks for a
great application!

    Subject: Re: [Wireshark-users] IPDR

    Hi Wes,

    A quick search on IPDR suggests that the packets might be encoded as
    XML (which is supported) or XDR (which might be supported by one of
    the RPC dissectors, not quite sure):
    http://www.ipdr.org/BestPracticesStandards/DownloadDocuments/4506/Home.html

    However, the transport layer seems to be a special protocol (IPDR
    Streaming Protocol: http://www.ipdr.org/public/DocumentMap/SP2.3.pdf)
    which runs over TCP/SCTP. I don't think this is supported.

    Assuming I am correct (I hope someone will correct me if I am not),
    someone will need to write a dissector for IPDR SP (and maybe for
    XDR). I think you need to file an enhancement request at
    bugs.wireshark.org and hopefully someone will look into it when they
    have the time.

    HTH
    Abhik.
