So in order to obtain the information needed to dissect the data I need to make a web request to the service. What I'd like to do is just use something like curl in my dissector to send a request when the tree is opened to dissect the payload data. There would probably need to be a different request for any two packets. The request should be fast but I can't guarantee that. I wasn't sure if this was a reasonable idea and if there are any stumbling blocks I should be aware of. Thanks a lot if anyone has advice.
