Hi,
I'm writing a plugin dissector that is gone
dissect data from the mac layer and the adaptation layer.
Which will pass the rest to the 6lowpan
dissector in Wireshark.
Everything is running fine, until I get
segmented data on the mac layer.
I can't seem to get the reassembly process
started.
I followed the documentation in the
wireshark development guide.
And looked at some other dissectors and
briefly looked reassemble functions in the code.
But I can't figure out why the segments
aren't being reassembled.
I included source and destination address
and mode in the pinfo of the packets.
Maybe I'm overlooking some other parameters
which are required.
Also its confusing wich parameters are
actually being expected in some cases.
Because on the next page http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChDissectReassemble.html
In Example 9.14. Reassembling
fragments - Part 1
They are referring to "msg_num, /*
fragment sequence number */".
Which I think refers to the offset in a
reassembled packet where the current segment starts.
I didn't include the code to handle the new tvb buffer yet.
I'm first waiting on the "Message Reassembled" message in the info column.
I include a screenshot of some of the code
and a overview of the variables in Wireshark.
I'm using Wireshark 1.6.5.
If any other information is required I'll
provide more.
Regards,
Robin Van De Put
