create OPCUA columns

0

Hi folks!

Is it possible to create columns (eg the No. Time Source and so on) with OPC UA informations? Display Name, Namespace Index, NodeID, Datatype, Value?

I tried to help myself but unfortunatly I was not successfull in creating a new column.

Normally any protocol field which can be dissected can also be made a column in the packet list - in the dissection pane, right-click that field and choose Apply as Column from the context menu. Does this not work for OPCUA fields?

In Wireshark there are two primary ways to add a column:

  1. Edit -> Preferences -> Columns -> Add -> Field type: Custom, Field name: <field>, Click on default Title name of "New Column" and rename it to something more meaningful, and finally, click on the Field type at the bottom of the list of columns and drag the newly added column to the desired location. Here, <field> is the Wireshark opcua filter name you're interested in.
  2. If you already have a capture file containing the field of interest, find a packet containing that field and then right-click on it and choose, "Apply as Column". Drag the column to its desired location.
