I don't have root access to that server but I should be able to get it then
get some tcpdumps.

All are from SPAN ports at each end. So for the second round of packet

The first round of packet captures are only from the SPAN port off the
MPLS router at Site 2.


I have to dash out of a few hours; but the short
answer is the first round of packet captures
are too far from the host to matter.

second set are doing better, but still
would be best to compare with tcpdumps
from the device A itself, to see what it
thinks it's sending out, vs what is seen
upstream of it.  Can you grab tcpdumps
from server A itself?

Thanks!

First is the SYN from Server A to Server B

Was this captured with tcpdump on Server A on its way out, or on Server B
on its way in, or at some other point using a span port?  The answer
matters
if we're suspecting that something along the way is stomping the
option....
