Hi,
The value_string gsm_dtap_elem_string is not realy used as a value_string but rather as
an array where the string is fetched by a pointer.
    item =
	proto_tree_add_text(tree,
	    tvb, curr_offset, 5,
	    gsm_dtap_elem_strings[DE_LAI].strptr);

GSM_A will is not described by asn1, so the dissector will not be asn2eth:ified.

I just finished going through and checking all value_strings in
dissectors and did find more than a handful ones that were not
properly terminated with a {0,NULL} entry.

These should all be fixed now.


In GMS-A   there was a very peculiar value_string : gsm_dtap_elem_string
that just looks very wrong.

Could one of the telco people have a look at that one    or should we
just wait until it is ASN2ETHified?
