What is pcapFilter?

This read-only field holds the tcpdump-style capture filter expression applied to this packet-capture session. Admins check it to see exactly which traffic the session is limited to, since a broad or missing filter can flood the capture with unrelated packets. For example, pcapFilter might contain "tcp port 80" to show the session only captures HTTP traffic rather than the full interface feed.
