Viewing and Decoding Packets : Choosing a decoder : Writing your own decoders

If you find proprietary protocols on your network for which LiveAction does not supply decoders, or if you are developing your own protocols, you may want to write your own decoders. See https://www.liveaction.com/support/frequently-asked-questions/ for information on writing decoders.
