Hello Guy,

So should we just say something such as

LINKTYPE_Z_WAVE_SERIAL XXX DLT_Z_WAVE_SERIAL Serial frames transmitted between a host and a Z-Wave chip over an RS-232 or USB serial connection, as described in section 5 of the Z-Wave Serial API Host Application Programming Guide. Frames that aren't ACK, NAK, CAN, or Data frames should be treated as invalid.

with "the Z-Wave Serial API Host Application Programming Guide" linking to the document you mentioned?

That way, the "Frames that aren't..." part indicates that, if code that produces those frames doesn't discard them, but provides them to programs capturing the frames or reading from a file logging the frames, the code getting the frames should either ignore them or report them as invalid.

Looks good for me.

Best,
Mikhail.
