Wireshark

The MGCP dissector is fully functional.

Example capture file

XXX - Add a simple example capture file to the SampleCaptures page and link from here (see below). Keep this file short, it's also a good idea to gzip it to make it even smaller, as Wireshark can open gzipped files automatically.

Display Filter

A complete list of MGCP display filter fields can be found in the display filter reference

Capture Filter

You cannot directly filter MGCP protocols while capturing. However, if you know the port used (see above), you can filter on that one.

Capture only the MGCP traffic over the TCP port (2427):
