You can check the resulting BPF code of a capture filter in the Wireshark capture options. The BPF code are the machine code instructions for the BPF engine. You can also use tcpdump to generate them: sake@MacSake:~$ tcpdump -d "ip and not port 53" tcpdump: WARNING: en0: no IPv4 address assigned (000) ldh [12] (001) jeq #0x800 jt 2 jf 14 (002) ldb [23] (003) jeq #0x84 jt 6 jf 4 (004) jeq #0x6 jt 6 jf 5 (005) jeq #0x11 jt 6 jf 13 (006) ldh [20] (007) jset #0x1fff jt 13 jf 8 (008) ldxb 4*([14]&0xf) (009) ldh [x + 14] (010) jeq #0x35 jt 14 jf 11 (011) ldh [x + 16] (012) jeq #0x35 jt 14 jf 13 (013) ret #65535 (014) ret #0 sake@MacSake:~$ tcpdump -d "ip and port not 53" tcpdump: WARNING: en0: no IPv4 address assigned (000) ldh [12] (001) jeq #0x800 jt 2 jf 14 (002) ldb [23] (003) jeq #0x84 jt 6 jf 4 (004) jeq #0x6 jt 6 jf 5 (005) jeq #0x11 jt 6 jf 13 (006) ldh [20] (007) jset #0x1fff jt 13 jf 8 (008) ldxb 4*([14]&0xf) (009) ldh [x + 14] (010) jeq #0x35 jt 14 jf 11 (011) ldh [x + 16] (012) jeq #0x35 jt 14 jf 13 (013) ret #65535 (014) ret #0 sake@MacSake:~$ As you can see, both filters generate the same BPF code, so the filters are the same.
