Often, when I want to be able to do post-mortem analysis of network

continuously on the SIP port.

Is there any way of doing something similar with PRI ISDN protocol?
I certainly don't want to have pri span debug running all the time,
but from time to time I do get customer queries about calls that have
failed or dropped for some reason, and it would be very useful to be
able to view the PRI exchange retrospectively. So I'd like the ability
efficiently to log PRI traffic raw to a file and then interpret it later.

Does anything like this exist already? Or could anyone point me in
the right direction for developing something?

Search for 'DAHDI pcap'; in recent versions of DAHDI it has become possible to generate PCAP dumps of HDLC traffic on D-channels (which could be ISDN, Q.SIG, SS7, etc.).
