Can tcpdump add support for decoding https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-large-community?

    ...
          AS Path (2), length: 6, Flags [T]: 65538
          Next Hop (3), length: 4, Flags [T]: 192.0.2.4
          Unknown Attribute (30), length: 12, Flags [OT]:
            no Attribute 30 decoder
            0x0000:  0001 0002 0000 0001 0000 0001
          Updated routes:
            203.0.113.34/32
    ...

IANA has made an Early Allocation of the value 30 (LARGE_COMMUNITY) in the "BGP Path Attributes" registry under the "Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Parameters" group and is now asked to make that Permanent.

Thanks

We need, at a minimum, some pcap files with this option '30' in various sizes, e.g. 12, 24, 36 octets ("The attribute consists of one or more 12-octet values.")
GitHub allows now to attach ZIP files.

I tested this on the Large BGP Communities beacon (described here: http://mailman.nanog.org/pipermail/nanog/2016-October/088537.html - Debian Sid, tcpdump 4.9.0-PRE-GIT_2016_10_12)

Looks good to me!
