There are many ways to skin a cat - here are two (I am sure you will
get tons of suggestions):

- what you need is: # ipsumdump -tsSdD <cap-file>
- if willing to "play" more, then: # tcpdump -neqr <cap file>, which
reduces the amount of info, then pipe-ing it through a "cut", or "awk"
to get everything you need
