Is it possible to view S6a traffic as well using Magma?

[albukirky1]

I have attached an SRSran UE and eNB to magma's orchestrator and AGW version 1.7.
I'm able to see the attach procedure by tcpdump'ing eth1 (the interface I configured for s1ap).
I was wondering if there is a way to view S6a (specifically auth vectors - authentication information request & answer) and tcpdump them as well?

If your setup is using local subscriberdb (And not FeG) you can enable print_grpc_payload in subscriberdb and see the vectors.

@panyogesh Thank you for your response.
I can indeed see the AUTH vectors in the logs doing that. However, I would like to see the diameter traffic through wireshark.
I tried changing s6a_over_grpc to False, yet when I do that the attach procedure fails.
Am I on the right track? Is setting s6a_over_grpc to False (and maybe setting up a Free-Diameter service somehow) the solution?

Thanks in advance!

In case you are not using FeG deployment, Magma uses local susbcriberdb to authenticate subscriber. Only if FeG is used diameter will be used.
