-| -A  | Print each packet (minus its link level header) in ASCII.  Handy for capturing web pages |
+In the following example
-| -n  | Don't convert host addresses to names.  This can be used to avoid DNS lookups. |

-| -nn | Don't convert protocol and port numbers etc. to names either. |
+> Replace **//x.x.x.x//** with the IP of the machine you are running the dump from. This IP depends on the interface (public/private)
-| -w  | Write  the raw packets to file rather than parsing and printing them out |
+> Replace **//y.y.y.y//** with the source IP. Example, server you are connecting FROM
-| -i  | Interface |
+<sxh bash>
-| src | Only capture information from a source (eg, src host x.x.x.x )|
+tcpdump -nn -tttt -i eth0 "dst port 3306" and "dst host x.x.x.x" and "src host y.y.y.y"
-| dst | Only capture traffic to destination address (a server could have multiple IPs, so you can specify) |
+</sxh>
-| -t  | NO time stamp - might be easier to read |
-| -vvv| Even more verbose output.  For example, telnet SB ... SE options are printed in full.  With -X Telnet options are printed in hex as well. |
