 From Edward J. Paradise via
 https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2693 :
 
 The rfc4938bis draft extends the Point-to-Point over Ethernet (PPPoE) protocol
 with an optional credit-based flow control mechanism and an optional Link
 Quality Metric report.  These optional extensions improve the performance of
 PPPoE over media with variable bandwidth and limited buffering, such as mobile
 point-to-point radio links.
 
 Support for rfc4938 already exists in wireshark, but rfc4938bis specifies a new
 credit scale factor TLV and the use of the reserved field of the PADQ to
 specify max and current data-rate scaling.
