Hi Philip,

What sequence of commands are you using to test? On all C7 instances I have
tested, virtual and bare metal, when capturing of the lo interface with
tcpdump, and analyzing the pcaps with tshark, I'm seeing 100% of SYN, ACK
packets as having the bogus timestamp.

Are you confident using tcpdump to both capture and replay the packets to
look at field values? Isn't it possible that tcpdump is writing to and
reading from the pcap in the same incorrect way?

Thanks,
Brandon
