- FIXME: This item needs to be documented
+ Tcpdump prints out the headers of packets on a network interface
+ that match the boolean expression. It can also be run with
+ the -w flag, which causes it to save the packet data to a file
+ for later analysis, and/or with the -r flag, which causes it to
+ read from a saved packet file rather than to read packets from
+ a network interface. In all cases, only packets that match
+ expression will be processed by tcpdump.
