Hello,
 
I'm interested in extending the DHCP dissector to decode a vendor specific DHCP option.  What is the recommended process for this?  Is it possible to write a plugin that can be called for this option by the BOOTP/DHCP dissector, or would I have to actually modify the BOOTP dissector to accomplish this?
 
thanks,
John
