Re: Query regarding PPP PAP decoding

If you want to see the values of the "Peer-ID" and
"Password" fields,
you can select them, and view the corresponding highlighted
bytes in the
bottom window (the "raw packet" view).

Thats true. However I am wondering why is it not shown in the decoding (or the middle ) pane? This is where all the 
other
details are shown, then why not the Peer id and Password?
Is it for some sort of "security"? It doesnt seem to help though,
as the data is anywhere available in the "raw packet" view.
