   As the manpage says:

         -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.

   and

         -x   Print  each packet (minus its link level header) in
              hex.  The smaller of the entire packet  or  snaplen
              bytes will be printed.
