Tcpdump rules !

Tcpdump is clearly one of my favorite tool. Here a little example to filter the traffic of my OSPF router.

tcpdump -i eth0 ip[9] == 89

And the result:

12:43:48.219432 IP p2b.soif.fr > OSPF-ALL.MCAST.NET: OSPFv2, Hello (1), length: 48
12:43:48.560817 IP wrt.soif.fr > OSPF-ALL.MCAST.NET: OSPFv2, Hello (1), length: 48

Wonderfull no ? :)

    See also TCPWatch, by Shane Hathaway, which is invaluable for debugging HTTP problems:

    Yes, TCPWatch is a great tool too. I use it to debug HTTP server a couple of times, and this is a incredible feature.

    – Enjoy Networking ?
