Logging data length

Hi

I am having an issue, whereby all TCP connections are showing a data-length of 0, in the logs.

The UDP and ICMP logs seem to be returning the values, although icmp could do with dropping the string "datalength="


TCP log - I assume data size should be the field after "443" (destination port) and before the "SEC" (meant to be TCP-Flags)
filterlog: 74,,,0,vmx1,match,pass,out,4,0x2,0,127,27104,0,DF,6,tcp,52,192.168.0.22,54.225.132.4,7680,443,0,SEC,362891810,,8192,,mss;nop;wscale;nop;nop;sackOK

UDP data size last entry
filterlog: 74,,,0,vmx1,match,pass,out,4,0x0,,64,4717,0,none,17,udp,96,192.168.0.22,9.9.9.9,52596,53,76

ICMP data size last entry
filterlog: 65,,,0,vmx1,match,pass,out,4,0x0,,63,21011,0,none,1,icmp,56,192.168.105.11,192.168.105.1,datalength=36

Now I may be completely reading the logs wrong, but I just can't seem to figure it out

Any help or clarification is appreciated

Thanks
PS: I have been reviewing the log format against https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/monitoring/filter-log-format-for-pfsense-2-2.html

SEC would mean SYN ECE CWR. Important is SYN as in handshake, which has no payload, hence the 0.

Ok, then there must be something wrong with my logging all I am seeing is the SEC (or S) entries.

for any connection, any ideas on how to fix my logging. Or am I completely not understanding something?


Your help is appreciated

Thanks
