+/* History
+ *
+ * Apr 4, 2010 - David Aggeler
+ *
+ * - Initial version based on packet-vlan.c
+ *
+ * VMware Lab Manager is using this encapsulation directly as Ethernet Frames
+ * or inside VLANs. The Ethernet type was originally registered to Akimbi, but VMware
+ * acquired this company in 2006. No public information found, so the decoding here
+ * is an educated guess. Since one of the features of Lab Manager is to separate
+ * VMs with equal host name, IP and MAC Address, I expect the upper layer dissectors
+ * (namely ARP, ICMP, IP, TCP) to create false alerts, since identical configurations
+ * may communicate at the same time. The main goal of this dissector is to be able
+ * to troubleshoot connectivity, preferably pings. It's also a little to understand
+ * as to how host spanning fenced configurations actually talk.
+ *
