The Problem

Wireshark does not show fragmented SIP packets (usually INVITE packets), it looks like this in the Wireshark interface:

The Solution

Disable (uncheck) 'Reassemble fragmented IP datagrams' option.

The option is available under Edit --> Preferences --> Protocols --> IPv4 window

With the option Reassemble fragmented IP datagrams disabled, Wireshark will display a fragmented SIP message
