Hello all, 

I am using wireshark 3.0.6 and I am trying to decode the MB2c Diameter Protocol for LTE Multicast (eMBMS). In the capture in the attachement, when I want to sent the MBMS Bearer Event AVP in the Diameter MB2C GCS-Notification-Request message, i get an Dissector Error. It does not like what II put into the MBMS-Bearer-Event, no matter the value is.

Could you tell me if that is a bug, or if the value is wrong? I have tried, 0x0, 0x1, 0x80, 0xFF etc.. all resulted in the parsing bug.

The specification says the following:



The error: is epan/proto.c:10950 failed assertion "hf->bitmask!=0" (Diameter.3gpp.mbms_bearer_event_spare).
