Filtering for untagged as well as tagged packets is a little tricky in
tcpdump/tshark/wireshark. The thing to remember is that the word vlan in
the capture filter advances the offset into the packet by 4 bytes (the
length of the 802.1q header). The correct way to do this is to first
filter on all non-tagged frames and the filter for the tagged frames
like this:

"(port 5060 or port 3868) or (vlan and (port 5060 or port 3868))"

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
