How do I view the details of an mmse content in v2.6.1 in the same way as they are displayed in v1.8.15?

  • retag add tags

I have been using Wireshark v1.8.15 to view Bcc data in mmse packets and they are displayed without any issues. When I try to do the same using v2.6.1 all that is displayed under MMS Message Encapsulation is "X-Mms-Message-Type: m-send-req (0x80). In v1.8.15 additional fields are displayed like X-Mms-Transaction-ID, X-Mms-MMS-Version and Bcc.

I'm hoping that it is just an adjustment to a filter or display as according to the Display Filter Reference, Mmse.bcc is still content that should be displayed.

I appreciate any assistance you can provide.

After additional testing with different versions, it appears that this change was introduced between versions 2.5.0 and 2.5.1.

You either install an automated build of 2.6.2 or wait for 2.6.2 to come out.

I'm hoping that it is just an adjustment to a filter or display as according to the Display Filter Reference, Mmse.bcc is still content that should be displayed.

Filters don't control the way packets are dissected, they control which packets, in their entirety, are displayed.

The problem there was that a test was backwards. The fix will be in the next 2.6.x, 2.4.x, and 2.2.x releases.

Thank you for the update. I was pretty sure that it was not an issue with the filter, but sometimes there are options or settings that can be changed on what types of data are on display, so I wanted to rule that out first.
