Hi Steven,

I'm not sure the vendor id payload is a big problem.  During 
negotiation, I think Shrew provides a list of the vendor ids it 
supports/emulates.

I would generate a log file from Shrew to see if it gives us more 
information, I would guess there is something else wrong, perhaps a 
configuration mismatch.

Instructions on how to generate a log file are here:
