Ethereal
is a network protocol analyzer for Unix. It allows you to examine data
from a live network or from a capture file on disk. You can interactively
browse the capture data, viewing summary and detail information for
each packet. Ethereal has several powerful features, including a rich
display filter language and the ability to view the ASCII contents of
a TCP connection.

The
tcpdump program by Van Jacobson. This program is similar to Sun's etherfind,
but somewhat more powerful and slightly easier to use. It captures packets
from an Ethernet in promiscuous mode, and displays their contents. Numerous
options exist to filter the output down to only those packets of interest.
This version runs on a number of different UNIX platforms.
