-S Print absolute, rather than relative, TCP sequence
numbers.
-s Snarf snaplen bytes of data from each packet rather
than the default of 68 (with SunOS's NIT, the mini?
mum is actually 96). 68 bytes is adequate for IP,
ICMP, TCP and UDP but may truncate protocol infor?
mation from name server and NFS packets (see
below). Packets truncated because of a limited
snapshot are indicated in the output with
``[|proto]'', where proto is the name of the proto?
col level at which the truncation has occurred.
Note that taking larger snapshots both increases
the amount of time it takes to process packets and,
effectively, decreases the amount of packet buffer?
ing. This may cause packets to be lost. You
should limit snaplen to the smallest number that
will capture the protocol information you're inter?
ested in. Setting snaplen to 0 means use the
required length to catch whole packets.
