 CORBA extension to tcpdump 3.4a4   November 19, 1999

 The modifications to this version of tcpdump build on Ciaran
 Treanor's giop printer to allow for much more complete printing of
 CORBA calls, including request/reply matching and durations.  To
 enable corba printing, include the command-line option '-T corba'.

 The best display for CORBA requires simultaneous use of the q flag (to
 suppress extra ip and tcp data) and the v flag (to include extra iiop
 data).  Following Treanor's conventions, the snap length should be set
 fairly high.  So, the best command line would look something like
 this:

 tcpdump -s 2000 -qq -vv -T corba <...>

 The output line includes fields for Call identifiers and timing for
 CORBA calls. The fields are:

  <Time Stamp>
  <SourceHost>.<SourcePort>
  >
  <DestinationHost>.<DestinationPort>:
  Corba
  <version>.<version>
  <TotalLength>
  Call | Oneway
  <RequestID>
  "<ObjectKey>"
  "<MethodName>"
   <TotalCallDuration>
   <RequestLength>
   <ReplyLength>
   <RequestDuration>
   <ReplyDuration>
   <ServerDuration>
