Tcpdump - any experts to explain exactly what the output means?

edit

Hi,

I have a tcpdump where I'm not getting the reply I expect from the remote device. I'm just wondering what certain parts mean.

Source : 10.1.38.140

Destination : 10.11.12.20

Normal flow:

10.1.38.140 -> 10.11.12.20 port 1002

10.11.12.20 -> 10.1.38.140 port 3001

From destination to source : TELNET ok

But , From source to destination : TELNET is not working (port 1002)

tcpdump output on Source

tcpdump dst 10.11.12.20
