Hi, Yes, highlighting would work too. Ultimately the application info corresponding to display filter should be visible easily without the need to scroll through the entire frame. Any suggestions on how to achieve this? I think GUI coloring implementation would paint the entire frame with the same color,wouldn't it?

What I was wondering is whether it is possible toshow these individual data chunks as separate frames themselves.But they are in the same frame. I really prefer not to show them in away theyhave not been on the wire. Basically agreed on the above point. Changing the default behavior maynot be good due to all the copied lower layer bytes and resulting increase in the size of capture in case there are 4-5 chunks per packet. But still feel it would be a nice optional feature to have when doing actual offline analysis. I do understand that it is sometimes hard to find the application layer packet when using display filters and there are multiple application layer packets bundled in a single frame. I also have traces with a large number of bundled chunks.Hence, when i apply display filter , only the chunks with exactmatches should be visible. Is this supported currently?No. Filtering is based on packets. Not sure how to improve that. Wecan't show 'half' of a packet.However, there might be ways to draw your attention to the upper layerpacket which matches thefilter. Regarding above point, would like to suggest that the packet informationbeing displayed can be restricted to the PDU which actually matches the display filter. E.g out of an SCTP packet carrying 3-4 M3UA chunks, the pinfo of only the chunk matching the filter can be displayed? Thinking about this... What about displaying only the frames, which match a display filter (like today). However, it might be helpful to highlight that part (like the M3UA packet) which matches the display filter. This should allow to find the upper layer packet pretty fast. What do you think?

Wireshark supports dissectingthe upper layer paylaodfor bundled DATA chunks for ages...
