Hi,

Be aware there's a difference between display and capture filters. 
Capture filters are fed to the capture engine which can make low level 
decisions (like ethernet address, tcp ports at most). Display filters 
come into play when real dissections takes place.
So, getting to something advanced as SNMP enterprise number needs 
dissection, hence is not available as capture filter.
For further reading, see http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureFilters

Thanx,
Jaap
