Thanks Ronnie. It is indeed ppp straight on top of udp, no standard that
I'm aware of, although I know of at least two wireless applications
using this procedure. The protocol stack:
Data ---------------- Data
IP1 ---------------- IP1
PPP ---------------- PPP
UDP ---------------- UDP
IP2 ----- IP ----- IP2
L2 ---- L2|L2 ---- L2
PHY ---- PHY|PHY --- PHY
Client Box X Box Y
I may be able to send a capture but I'd need to see if, in principle,
the decode would be possible. I guess it would be possible to write a
dissector, but most of the code would already be there for ppp over
L1...
