Hi,

I would like to find out what is the reasoning behind using 68 as the
current TCPDUMP snaplen. The manual says that this is adequate to cover
TCP/IP traffic - though given that TCP can have 40 bytes of options, this
clearly falls short. Does anyone have suggestions on a better choice of
snaplen?
