I'm not sure how DISL differs from ISL, but there is some support for
ISL.  See packet-eth.c and packet-isl.c

Is that the protocol sometimes called "Cisco HDLC" (which isn't actually
HDLC)?  If so, see packet-chdlc.c.

packet-egp.c

HDLC by itself isn't supported; we do support some HDLC-derived
protocols - LAPB (packet-lapb.c), LAPD (packet-lapd.c), as well as a
protocol from which HDLC is derived, namely SDLC (packet-sdlc.c).

What's "LAP", as opposed to "LAPF"?

We support some of LAPF, at least - see packet-fr.c.

No - nobody's implemented those.

The current CVS version of Ethereal supports it; some earlier versions
support it with the plugin dissector from

	http://voice2sniff.org/

or

	http://sourceforge.net/projects/ethereal-h323-p/

I'm not the author of all of that stuff, so I'm setting replies to go to
the ethereal-dev list, rather than just to me.
