tshark 2.0.2 does not support gsm_a.imsi field ?

0

hi,

I am using tshark version 2.0.2, and tshark is not able to decode the field gsm_a.imsi (SGSAP message).

Observing the below error message when I execute the tshark command.

tshark -r test.pcap -T fields -e gsm_a.imsi tshark: Some fields aren't valid: gsm_a.imsi

test.pcap has the sgsap message with imsi IE.

Anyone observing the same problem ? Can you please let me know how to resolve this issue. Thanks

That field was renamed to e212.imsi (this is actually a common IMSI field--so you can find all messages about a given IMSI, regardless of the protocol (at least for protocols that have been converted to use that field)).
