The** show tcp_timestamps** command shows whether TCP timestamps are enabled or disabled. If timestamps are enabled, you can view them in the traffic capture file. 

Typically, you run the `show tcp_timestamps` command before running the <span style="color: #3366ff">[*set tcp_timestamps*](https://infoblox-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/nios85/pages/35750145)</span><span style="color: #3366ff"> </span>command to determine the status of the TCP timestamps. Based on the status (enabled or disabled), you can run `set tcp_timestamps` to enable or disable the timestamps.
