Hi,

The proper way to request features or report bugs is through 
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/ or start a discussion on the mailing 
lists. If I look in the 3GPP specifications

TS 23.003 Chapter 2.4

…”The TMSI consists of 4 octets. It can be coded using a full hexadecimal 
representation.”… so displaying it as decimal may be misleading?

In packet-s1ap.c we have 

M-TMSI TYPE = FT_UINT32 DISPLAY = BASE_DEC_HEX

Which will change the representation to be both decimal AND hexadecimal we 
could do that for NAS-EPS too I suppose.

 

“I’m trying to create a MATE file that will add IMSI to all packets in all 
common 3gpp core protocols.

My goal is to filter all messages related to a specific IMSI from a 
multi-subscriber and multi-protocol cap file.”

 

This would be a valuable feature I think and perhaps should be done by code 
rather than mate, perhaps you can share your mate files?

Regards

Anders

Subject: nas_eps value type change request

 

Hi Andres,

 

Sorry for this direct request, My name is Dudi and I’m a Packet Core Engineer.

I’m using WS a lot, i’m trying to create a MATE file that will add IMSI to all 
packets in all common 3gpp core protocols.

My goal is to filter all messages related to a specific IMSI from a 
multi-subscriber and multi-protocol cap file.

 

M-TMSI (under GUTI) value is in hex on nas_eps and dec in s1ap dissector.

nas_eps.emm.m_tmsi

s1ap.m_TMSI

 

So, because of this type difference, when using MATE, I cannot correlate 
between Attach/TAU to Service requests and Paging.

Is it possible to change  in packet-nas_epc also to decimal like MME group ID 
and MMe Code ?

Do you think it's correct to use decimal here ?
