Hi list,
Has anyone ever thought about adding the kind of advanced sequence number analysis that the TCP dissector has to SCTP (detecting retransmissions, duplicate ACKs, etc.)?
In TCP it's done inside the dissector (which allows cool things like jumping do the frame with the duplicate ack) but is that how it should be done now or would a tap be better? (Or should be be added to the existing--GUI based--SCTP statistics stuff? Could that be adapted to do this?) 

Regards,
-Jeff
