What is the way to request the support for the additional ISIS TLVs for SPB?

0

IANA just resgiter a new series of ISIS TLVs to support SPB based on the draft: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-isis-ieee-aq-05

The SPB tlvs are listed under IANA ISIS codepoints at http://www.iana.org/assignments/isis-tlv-codepoints/isis-tlv-codepoints.xml

Please advise the procedure to request the support of those within wireshark.

Thanks

All enhancement requests can be done on https://bugs.wireshark.org. Please mark your request as an enhancement request (severity) and provide the link towards the protocol specification (just like you did in this Question). It will be of great help if you can attach a capture file showing the new TLV's.

Please note that there is no guarantee to if and when the new TLV's will be added, as all work is done on a voluntary basis. If you really need this functionality, you might consider finding someone to write the dissector code for you (and preferably submit it to the Wireshark repository).
