Hi,

> I tried MAC and PDCP over UDP and it worked

That’s because someone invented a pseudo protocol to transport RRC over UDP and Wireshark has the ability to dissect that protocol As far as I know nothing similar

Exists for NR-RRC. But I presume you have some program producing the NR-RRC over UDP you could change that program to use Exported PDU otherwise you

Would have to write your own dissector to dissect your NR-RRC enveloped in UDP packet.

Best regards

Anders

Hello Anders, 

 

The method which you describe is working perfectly ( for Wireshark version 3.1.0 ), I want to know why RRC dissector is not called when I transmit the packet over UDP, earlier I tried MAC and PDCP over UDP and it worked. Is there any method to decode RRC message over UDP as I want to test 5G NR RRC other messages also.

Thanks for the help

Hi,

The NR-RRC messages has to be dissected by calling dissector by name. Currently “MIB” is not handled but I have amended the code to expose it.

Instead of building a UDP packet with the MIB Octets as data you can create an “Exported PDU” by using text2pcap

text2pcap.exe -l 252 MIB.txt mib.pcapng

 

The code change can be followed here https://code.wireshark.org/review/#/c/34852/

Dissection result:

Regards

Anders

No In wireshark there is no such seperate NR RRC over UDP option. But then if not UDP then how am I supposed to send and receive packet ?

What is the payload of that UDP packet supposed to be?

Is there some "NR RRC over UDP protocol" being used?
