Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] TCAP/CAMEL protocols dissection problem

Hello All,


I am sorry if my question is asked on the wrong place.


I have run the tshark command with the -V argument (to get protocol details) on a capture file containing CAMEL protocol traces over M2PA SIGTRAN (lower layers are TCAP/SCCP/MTP3/M2PA/SCTP). But the dissection only detects the layers M2PA/MTP3/SCCP. Here is the output:

[Protocols in frame: eth:ip:sctp:m2ua:mtp3:sccp:data]


The dissector does not detect TCAP and CAMEL.


I have had the same problem with a file containing INAP and ISUP.


Here are the links of the pcap file and the tshark command output hosted on google drive:



Please help me upon this issue: is there any hint how to get these protocols decoded correctly? Is this an issue with wireshark dissector?


Best Regards.
