certain pieces of information. In many cases, they are used in an extension
mechanism so that new object identifiers (and associated values) may be defined
without needing to change the base standard.</p><p>Whilst Wireshark has knowledge about many of the OIDs and the syntax of their
associated values, the extensibility means that other values may be encountered.</p><p>Wireshark uses this table to allow the user to define the name and syntax of
Object Identifiers that Wireshark does not know about (for example, a privately
defined X.400 extension). It also allows the user to override the name and
syntax of Object Identifiers that Wireshark does know about (e.g. changing the
name &#8220;id-at-countryName&#8221; to just &#8220;c&#8221;).</p><p>This table is handled by an <a class="xref" href="ChUserTable.html" title="10.7. User Table">Section 10.7, &#8220;User Table&#8221;</a> with the following fields.</p><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term">

The string representation of the Object Identifier e.g. &#8220;2.5.4.6&#8221;.

The name that should be displayed by Wireshark when the Object Identifier is

</span></dt><dd>
The syntax of the value associated with the Object Identifier. This must be one
of the syntaxes that Wireshark already knows about (e.g. &#8220;PrintableString&#8221;).
