Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Importing raw application protocol data with Wireshark

There is "Import from Hexdump" in the File menu, which can prefix headers, create a pcap and open it in Wireshark.
It's also usable from the command line with the text2pcap utility.

I also had success with Net::PcapWriter from CPAN in the past.

Regards,
Ahmad
