Check your TCP settings. TCP Offload and other settings can cause some or most of the traffic to bypass the virtual NIC 
and will be passed directly to the physical NIC on the host system.

Or setup a port mirror and capture the traffic off the wire vs the virtual NIC.

Have you enabled promiscuous mode for the virtual NIC?

Can wireshark be setup to work on an esxi virtual machine?  I’m trying 
to test it and all I’m seeing is broadcast traffic, no unicasts.  The 
server is running Ubuntu Lucid desktop.  Any ideas?
