OK, I've assigned LINKTYPE_NG40/DLT_NG40, with a value of 244.

I've checked in an update to the "Link-layer header types" page on the tcpdump.org Web site:

        http://www.tcpdump.org/linktypes.html

which lists LINKTYPE_NG40/DLT_NG40; it links to a page at

        http://www.tcpdump.org/linktypes/LINKTYPE_NG40.html

which specifies the format of LINKTYPE_NG40 traffic.
