Hi folks, I am thinking of writing a wtap module to read ComView WLAN Analyzer and Decoder NCFS format files. They are a little like PCAP files with a radiotap header, but their format is quite different from the radiotap format. It contains much of the same info but it is in a different format. The spec is here: https://www.tamos.com/htmlhelp/commwifi/logformat.htm The main things of interest are the 802.11ax info. One way to handle it would be to convert their info to a standard radiotap header but it looks kind of complicated to handle that. Another approach might be to use a new or different WTAP type and write a separate dissector for those headers. Any thoughts? -- Regards, Richard Sharpe (何以解憂?唯有杜康。--曹操)(传说杜康是酒的发明者) ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
