Treat TCP as MQTT protocol

Question

I have packets captured during not encrypted MQTT communication:

Protocol is detected as TCP. How to ask Wireshark to analyze packets as MQTT?

UPD

In case I set MQTT server work on default 1883 port I Wireshark treats packets like MQTT. But how to ask Wireshark treat packets lime MQTT when it runs on on default port?

Can you check if your MQTT port is set at 1883? You can check it from - Edit -> Preferences -> Protocols -> MQTT. — Nazia Jahan Trisha, Jan 20 '20 at 16:04
Yes, it recognizes packets on 1883 port, but how to do the same on not default port? — vico, Jan 20 '20 at 16:40
Can you give it a try by unticking - Edit -> Preferences -> Protocols -> TCP -> 'allow subdissector to reassemble tcp streams' ? — Nazia Jahan Trisha, Jan 20 '20 at 17:00
Unticking `Edit -> Preferences -> Protocols -> TCP -> 'allow subdissector to reassemble tcp streams'` not helps — vico, Jan 20 '20 at 20:07

Right click on a packet, and select Decode as.... A dialog appears, which should contain rules for the port you've selected. In the "Current" column, it will contain (none). Double click that cell, and the contents will change to a drop-down list. From that, select "MQTT", and press OK.
