Place packet_vmt.lua in src folder to your Wireshark's user script folder [3].
Usualy the folder is C:\Users\<Your_User_ID>\AppData\Roaming.
The below PowerShell command can help you to place the script in this folder.
Copy-Item ./src/packet_vmt.lua $env:APPDATA/Wireshark/plugins
After this placement, you should reload the script folder by (Analyze->Reload Lua Plugins; Ctrl-Shift-L) button.
A python script test_packet_vmt.py in test folder can generate VMT messages which cover all type of VMT for a test. You can check your environment with this test script. test_packet_vmt.py requires three args options which are the IP address of the driver working on, VMT driver listening port number, and VMT manager listening port. Usualy, the driver and manager port numbers are 39570 and 39571 each other. If you are using Visual Studio Code, launch.json is useful to lunch this test script on Python mode. When you use this file, you should modify IP address and port numbers for your enviroment.
