Unfortunately, you are going to have to do a bit of your own parsing I think. While a lot of the fields are properly parsed out as named fields, some are left as unnamed text items. You can see this if you look at a DNS response packet and select "useful" fields (such as the IP address in a resource record field) and watch the Status bar. You will note there that these are unnamed text items. It is also obvious when you export such a frame to PDML. You can see a number of fields with just "show" attributes, but no name -see a nippet below. I would suggest you could add a bug/feature request to the wireshark bugzilla and see if it gets worked on. (you would normally use some thing like custom columns in Wireshark, or "tshark -T fields" to display individual fields, but it won't work on fields without names)

I want to save the DNS header fields and RRs in mysql. As the tshark/wireshark  is a well-known protocol analyser I am thinking about a way that can pipe the out put of  tshark/wireshark to mysql.
is there any solution for this thanks.
I tried the tshark but the tshark will not give me all the protocol information and only will give me some summarized info. I can get a xml output by -pdml option but i don't know how I can pipe it to mysql.
I appreciate any help.
