Collecting Debug Recording Messages
To collect debug recording packets, use the open source packet capturing program, Wireshark. To
analyze AudioCodes debug recording protocol, proprietary Wireshark plug-in files are required.
● The default debug recording port is 925. You can change the port in Wireshark (Edit
menu > Preferences > Protocols > AC DR).
● The plug-in files are per major software release of Wireshark. For more information,
contact the sales representative of your purchased device.
➢ To use Wireshark to view debug recording messages:
1. Install Wireshark on your computer (which can be downloaded from
https://www.wireshark.org).
2. Download AudioCodes proprietary Wireshark plug-in files according to the type of installation
(32-bit or 64-bit) from https://www.audiocodes.com/library/firmware.
3. Copy the downloaded plug-in files to the "plugin" directory of the Wireshark installation.
4. Start Wireshark.
5. In the filter field, type "acdr" to view the debug recording messages.
The device adds the header "AUDIOCODES DEBUG RECORDING" to each debug recording
message, as shown below:
The source IP address of the messages is always the OAMP IP address of the device.
