OMA ULP Protocol version 2.0 support problem and Malformed Packet: ULP error

0

Hi, community, I'm using 1.4.3 to trace the ULP message between two testing nodes, but found that it will report Malformed Packet: ULP error.

[Malformed Packet: ULP] Expert Info (Error/Malformed): Malformed Packet (Exception occurred) Message: Malformed Packet (Exception occurred) Severity level: Error Group: Malformed

even the msisdn part cannot be decoded successfully, does anyone know the ULP protocol version supported in 1.4.3?

From the asn1 spec in wireshark/asn1/ulp -- Taken from OMA UserPlane Location Protocol -- http://www.openmobilealliance.org/technical/release_program/docs/SUPL/V2_0-20080627-C/OMA-TS-ULP-V2_0-20080627-C.pdf You could open a bug report at https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/ including a small capture file ilusstrating the problem. You could also try a development version from http://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/

Thank you for your reply, I've tried the latest development version, but it still doesn't ok, I'm not sure it's a bug or a protocol compliance issue, because the protocl version I'm using is OMA-TS-ULP-V2_0-20100806-D, more elements are added compared with 20080627-C, the error was reported on a common element that I've checked no change happened between the version I'm using and the version WireShark supports. Do you have information whether Wireshark will have any plan to upgrade the ULP version?

Hi, No plans exist to upgrade any protocol, it all depends on contributors intrested in doing the updates. You could extract the asn.1 from teh OMA spec like here http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/viewvc/trunk/asn1/ulp/ attach it to a bug report and some one might update the dissector. BTW ther seems to be a version 3 as well. If you include your failing trace some one might figure out what the problem is. Regards Anders
