Cheers Andy, I have been using that instruction set in the past week but was hoping for a ready-to-go means of translating the packets in wireshark. If there isn't one then no worries.

It's a matter for debate whether code "runs" on an FPGA...

However, the VHDL source code can be viewed here, though this is a somewhat out-of-date version:

The LBP16 protocol is documented in the manual for any Mesa Ethernet card.
