about tcpdump

I think by default it does only log "session" info not the full packet.  For that you'd need to add -vvv and set the packet length to zero to capture the full packet.

So, just run it without any args and you should be ok.

Subject: about tcpdump

I have a network. I wish to log all incoming and outgoing trafficc using 
tcpdump on my gateway server. But I don't want to log these traffic's data 
because of they take up much on disk.
I only want to log which ports were used, which ip addresses were reached.
How can I do these using tcpdump ?
Could you give me an example or docs?
I use freebsd7.2
