Hi,

I used Ethereal 0.8.10 to decode some RSVP messages.
I found that Ethereal mis-interpreted the message type field
in the RSVP header when the value is 20. It is supposed to be the Hello
message type defined in RSVP-TE. But Ethereal displayed "Explicit Route
Object" as the message type. Interestingly, the Class Num field for Explicit
Route Object is defined to be 20.

Please ignore this message if this problem has been corrected in a later
release of Ethereal. I'd appreciate it if someone could notify me if this is
the case.

Thanks,
- Steve
