Just to put an answer to this, the solution is to right click on the "data" part inside the UDP packet, and select "Decode as" and choose protocol "GPRS-NS", then click OK.
I also used filtering to limit the messaging to the PCU <--> SGSN part:
udp.srcport==23000 or udp.dstport==23000
Hope this will help others too.

Dear list,
I just appear to have a strange UE behavior where the UE tries to Attach (both CS and PS), the Osmo-SGSN sends an Attach accept, but the UE never responds with an Attach complete, instead after 10 seconds it tries to re-attach.
I had an issue quite similar like this earlies where the UE requests for some IEs or the SGSN sends soething the UE don't like.
The point is, I would like to do protocol trace between the SGSN and the PCU, and I managed to see the traffic with Wireshark, but it was not able to dissect/recognise the protocols over the UDP layer.
Can someone please help me how to configure Wireshark to be able to dissect the involved protocols?
Thanks!
Csaba
