The "tcp" in "tcpdump" is a bit old - people use it for doing more than just looking at TCP headers these days - and it sounds as if the problem Torsten Krah had tring to decrypt ipsec traffic was due to the packets being cut short by a snapshot length.

Would it make sense to have tcpdump default to the maximum snapshot length, rather than 68 (without IPv6 support) or 96 (with IPv6 support)?

I've checked in a change to make the default snapshot length 65535.
