Re: Developing GSMTAP version 3

I wonder whether we should be allocating gsmtap types for protocols which had to use alone so far. For instance in GSM I see RLC/MAC, LLC, SNDCP, etc. but those were never really necessary afaik because they always come on top of Um, which is the protocol we encapsulate with gsmtap. I understand that somebody may want to encapsulate eg LLC directly, but until there's a explicit need for it I'd perhaps avoid adding them to the list.

I think this is for QMI tools like scat, QCSuper, or osmo-qcdiag, which can obtain raw PDUs from various protocol stack layers. Those PDUs are not always complete, e.g. you may get only the LLC alone.

Best regards, Vadim.
