RE: [Ethereal-users] GTP unknown for UDP packets

["Anders Broman (AL/EAB)" <anders.broman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I assume the first packets are sent from port 2152 which is the "well known port" of GTP
gtp-user        2152/tcp   GTP-User Plane (3GPP)
gtp-user        2152/udp   GTP-User Plane (3GPP)
Hence ethereal tries to decode this as GTP, you could dissable the GTP protocol or use "decode as" for the protocol actually
Used on top of UDP.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] GTP unknown for UDP packets

Have a question regarding an observation I made when inspecting multicast traffic.
Rather than seeing the UDP source/destination port do I see "GTP Unknown" [ref below excerpt], now trying to understand why I see this (See the source address ok on the same packets when inspecting the traffic further down streams using snoop so it seems to be an ethereal issue)
