A common reason why you only see TCP syn/fin packets is TCP Chimney

What "NIC" are you using for capture? The team adapter is virtual, so possibly the WinPcap shim does not work well with that configuration. (It might see all of the traffic if you choose the physical adapter).

You might be better off port-mirroring on the switch it connects to, and capturing on a dedicated Wireshark box, rather than the server

I am running Wireshark on Windows 2008 Server with a Broadcom team in SLB with failover.

 

I am able to capture but the content of the capture is only the syn/ack and fin/ack packets.

 

I need to see content and can’t for the life of me figure out why this is happening.

 

I have no filters set on capture or on the captured input.

 

Can anyone help with this?
