Souds like https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3378 :-)

It would be nice to have an example file in the capture menagerie, If you can reply with a little capture file without 
any sensitive information in it, that would be nice :-)

Cheers,
Sake

I see 2 full Ethernet headers in Wireshark - Ethernet with Source/Dest MAC address, IPv4, EtherIP Version 4, Ethernet 
with Source/Dest address, 802.1Q VLAN, IP.

Wireshark can dissect it.

Hi all,

I have vlan packets that contain 2 Ethernet headers,


I.e., you have some form of VLAN other than an IEEE VLAN?

*IEEE* VLANs do not have two full Ethernet headers; they have a regular Ethernet header, with a destination address, 
a source address, and a type/length field, with the type/length field having a type value such as 0x8100 or 0x9100.  
That's followed by a VLAN header with a priority code point, drop eligible indicator, VLAN ID, and type field.

What sort of VLAN is this?  Can Wireshark dissect it?
