 This is a new dissector plugin for Hilscher analyzer frames.
 These frames are generated by Hilscher analyzer products and are identified via
 their unique source MAC address (this is a reserved MAC from Hilscher-range and
 will never be used by another network device). Most likely these frames are
 only generated on a virtual network interface or the generating device is
 attached directly via patch cable to a real network interface, but not routed
 through a network. The Ethernet-header (destination MAC, source MAC and
 Length/Type) is not displayed in the protocol tree for these frames as this is
 overhead-information which has no practical use in this case.
 
 Note:
 
 This is a heuristic Ethernet dissector which means it gets called for every
 Ethernet frame.  So as to not cause a performance hit for most Wireshark users
 it has a preference which, by default, disables the dissector.
