Re: Request new DLT value for raw fibre channel

[kahou lei <kahou82 () gmail com>]

In this case, can you assign me one more value for FC with SOF? The reason
is that our module can send out two type of packets: One with SOF, one
without SOF.

I will add one dissector in wireshark to support FC with SOF (If it doesn't
exist).

Thanks,
Kahou
