Only seeing arp traffic?

I have the following configuration:

Cable Modem
        /\
         |
         |
        \/
    HUB <-----> Snort IDS with No IP address (OpenBSD 2.7 Sparc 20, snort
1.7rel2)
        /\
         |
         |
        \/
   UGate-3200 Firewall
        /\
         |
         |
        \/
Rest of network

(All lines are catV ethernet, The one to the cable modem is plugged into the
xover port on the hub, every other host on the network is running a-okay).
Here is a sample of the traffic that I have been seeing:

# tcpdump -i hme0
tcpdump: WARNING: hme0: no IPv4 address assigned

20:02:44.042454 arp who-has 24.18.130.137 tell 24.18.130.1

I found the bootp traffic particularly interesting, but I would really like
to see more common IP trafffic (like TCP, UDP, ICMP maybe? :-)

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks, in advance....

Paul
