Wireshark · Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] iSER

[ronnie sahlberg <ronniesahlberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

As Guy said,  Ethereal does currently not support this.

Very few people have access to captures of these encapsulations/protocols.

A good way to encourage developement of support of this would be adding
a wiki page for these protocols  with pointers to standards/drafts as well as a few example capture files.

Example captures are also good since it would allow us to make
regression and fuzz testing for the dissector before we release each
new version.


My own understanding iSER is pretty sketchy,   is it
related/similar to the very early iSCSI drafts when discussions of
adding fixed-intervall in-stream record markers where the next pdu starts?
(i only play with vanilla iscsi and never get the opportunity to look
at the more interesting encapsulations.    i would also
love to have mFCP examples)


If so it may be semi-tricky (but not impossible) to implement since it would require a bit of layering violation in ethereal.

In any case i would LOVE to see example traces of this protocol/encapsulation.

It doesn't do so currently.

It will if, and when, somebody contributes support.
