Changes for version 3.21 - 2006-11-15

  • NEW: added layers STP, OSPF (header only), IGMPv4 (v1 and v2), CDP::Address, CDP::TypeAddresses, CDP::TypeCapabilities, CDP::TypePortId, CDP::TypeSoftwareVersion
  • NEW: Dump now support PPP links
  • UPDATE: old PPP integrated into PPPoE, because this is PPP for PPPoE So, there is a new PPP implementation, which is now a layer 2
  • UPDATE: also, PPPLCP is now a layer 3
  • UPDATE: IPv4: hlen now defaults to 5, length now defaults to NP_IPv4_HDR_LEN
  • update: CDP: new attributes: typeAddresses, typePortId, typeCapabilities, typeSoftwareVersion
  • update: Packet: removed the END block that would clean $Env->dump, it is user responsibility to do that
  • bugfix: Frame: _getPadding()
  • bugfix: Dump: storing of received frames when doFrameReturnList is true
  • bugfix: Dump: .storable file removing in all cases
  • bugfix: Dump: isFather(), isSon()
