调试网络程序时，通常需要抓包分析。Linux下的tcpdump就很好。
Ubuntu下默认已经安装。下面先举个实际的例子：
比如我有一个C++程序监听本地端口8889, 另一个newlisp程序通过TCP和其通信。
首先可以检查一下有几个网络接口。
root@ www.linuxidc.com :~# tcpdump -D
1.eth0
2.any (Pseudo-device that captures on all interfaces)
3.lo
由于是本机运行，都是通过lo接口，因此后面参数用-i 3.
-i 3 代表监控的是网络接口lo。 现在启动tcpdump
tcpdump -i 3 tcp port 8889 -v -XX
-XX表示用16进制和ASCII文本显示网络包的数据。
21:19:40.151304 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 37956, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 56)
localhost.8889 > localhost.55131: Flags [P.], cksum 0xfe2c (incorrect -> 0x8dc0), seq 41:45, ack 117, win 342, options [nop,nop,TS val 728981 ecr 723761], length 4

首先显示了时间，然后可以看到数据传输方向，从C++->newlisp程序。还可以看到应用层传输的字节数目是4.
最后可以看到0100 3355 就是发出来的4个字节。
其他很多字节应该是TCP协议自身需要的数据。不做深究。

最后给一个文章，演示了很多好的用法。 http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2013-06/86710p2.htm
tcpdump command is also called as packet analyzer.
tcpdump command will work on most flavors of unix operating system. tcpdump allows us to save the packets that are captured, so that we can use it for future analysis. The saved file can be viewed by the same tcpdump command. We can also use open source software like wireshark to read the tcpdump pcap files.
In this tcpdump tutorial, let us discuss some practical examples on how to use the tcpdump command.
1. Capture packets from a particular ethernet interface using tcpdump -i
When you execute tcpdump command without any option, it will capture all the packets flowing through all the interfaces. -i option with tcpdump command, allows you to filter on a particular ethernet interface.
$ tcpdump -i eth1
14:59:26.608728 IP xx.domain.netbcp.net.52497 > valh4.lell.net.ssh: . ack 540 win 16554
14:59:26.610602 IP resolver.lell.net.domain > valh4.lell.net.24151: 4278 1/0/0 (73)
14:59:26.611262 IP valh4.lell.net.38527 > resolver.lell.net.domain: 26364+ PTR? 244.207.104.10.in-addr.arpa. (45)
In this example, tcpdump captured all the packets flows in the interface eth1 and displays in the standard output.
Note: Editcap utility is used to select or remove specific packets from dump file and translate them into a given format.
2. Capture only N number of packets using tcpdump -c
When you execute tcpdump command it gives packets until you cancel the tcpdump command. Using -c option you can specify the number of packets to capture.
$ tcpdump -c 2 -i eth0
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
14:38:38.184913 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > yy.domain.innetbcp.net.11006: P 1457255642:1457255758(116) ack 1561463966 win 63652
14:38:38.690919 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > yy.domain.innetbcp.net.11006: P 116:232(116) ack 1 win 63652
2 packets captured
13 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel
The above tcpdump command captured only 2 packets from interface eth0.
Note: Mergecap and TShark: Mergecap is a packet dump combining tool, which will combine multiple dumps into a single dump file. Tshark is a powerful tool to capture network packets, which can be used to analyze the network traffic. It comes with wireshark network analyzer distribution.
3. Display Captured Packets in ASCII using tcpdump -A
The following tcpdump syntax prints the packet in ASCII.
$ tcpdump -A -i eth0
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
14:34:50.913995 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > yy.domain.innetbcp.net.11006: P 1457239478:1457239594(116) ack 1561461262 win 63652

Note: Ifconfig command is used to configure network interfaces
4. Display Captured Packets in HEX and ASCII using tcpdump -XX
Some users might want to analyse the packets in hex values. tcpdump provides a way to print packets in both ASCII and HEX format.
$tcpdump -XX -i eth0
18:52:54.859697 IP zz.domain.innetbcp.net.63897 > valh4.lell.net.ssh: . ack 232 win 16511

5. Capture the packets and write into a file using tcpdump -w
tcpdump allows you to save the packets to a file, and later you can use the packet file for further analysis.
$ tcpdump -w 08232010.pcap -i eth0
tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
32 packets captured
32 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel
-w option writes the packets into a given file. The file extension should be .pcap, which can be read by any network protocol
analyzer.
6. Reading the packets from a saved file using tcpdump -r
You can read the captured pcap file and view the packets for analysis, as shown below.
$tcpdump -tttt -r data.pcap

7. Capture packets with IP address using tcpdump -n
In all the above examples, it prints packets with the DNS address, but not the ip address. The following example captures the packets and it will display the IP address of the machines involved.
$ tcpdump -n -i eth0
15:01:35.170763 IP 10.0.19.121.52497 > 11.154.12.121.ssh: P 105:157(52) ack 18060 win 16549
15:01:35.170776 IP 11.154.12.121.ssh > 10.0.19.121.52497: P 23988:24136(148) ack 157 win 113
15:01:35.170894 IP 11.154.12.121.ssh > 10.0.19.121.52497: P 24136:24380(244) ack 157 win 113
8. Capture packets with proper readable timestamp using tcpdump -tttt
$ tcpdump -n -tttt -i eth0
2010-08-22 15:10:39.162830 IP 10.0.19.121.52497 > 11.154.12.121.ssh: . ack 49800 win 16390
2010-08-22 15:10:39.162833 IP 10.0.19.121.52497 > 11.154.12.121.ssh: . ack 50288 win 16660
2010-08-22 15:10:39.162867 IP 10.0.19.121.52497 > 11.154.12.121.ssh: . ack 50584 win 16586
9. Read packets longer than N bytes
You can receive only the packets greater than n number of bytes using a filter ‘greater’ through tcpdump command
$ tcpdump -w g_1024.pcap greater 1024
10. Receive only the packets of a specific protocol type
You can receive the packets based on the protocol type. You can specify one of these protocols — fddi, tr, wlan, ip, ip6, arp, rarp, decnet, tcp and udp. The following example captures only arp packets flowing through the eth0 interface.
$ tcpdump -i eth0 arp
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
19:41:52.809642 arp who-has valh5.lell.net tell valh9.lell.net
19:41:52.863689 arp who-has 11.154.12.1 tell valh6.lell.net
19:41:53.024769 arp who-has 11.154.12.1 tell valh7.lell.net
11. Read packets lesser than N bytes
You can receive only the packets lesser than n number of bytes using a filter ‘less’ through tcpdump command
$ tcpdump -w l_1024.pcap less 1024
12. Receive packets flows on a particular port using tcpdump port
If you want to know all the packets received by a particular port on a machine, you can use tcpdump command as shown below.
$ tcpdump -i eth0 port 22
19:44:44.934459 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > zz.domain.innetbcp.net.63897: P 18932:19096(164) ack 105 win 71
19:44:44.934533 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > zz.domain.innetbcp.net.63897: P 19096:19260(164) ack 105 win 71
19:44:44.934612 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > zz.domain.innetbcp.net.63897: P 19260:19424(164) ack 105 win 71
13. Capture packets for particular destination IP and Port
The packets will have source and destination IP and port numbers. Using tcpdump we can apply filters on source or destination IP and port number. The following command captures packets flows in eth0, with a particular destination ip and port number 22.
$ tcpdump -w xpackets.pcap -i eth0 dst 10.181.140.216 and port 22
14. Capture TCP communication packets between two hosts
If two different process from two different machines are communicating through tcp protocol, we can capture those packets using tcpdump as shown below.
$tcpdump -w comm.pcap -i eth0 dst 16.181.170.246 and port 22
You can open the file comm.pcap using any network protocol analyzer tool to debug any potential issues.
15. tcpdump Filter Packets – Capture all the packets other than arp and rarp
In tcpdump command, you can give “and”, “or” and “not” condition to filter the packets accordingly.
$ tcpdump -i eth0 not arp and not rarp
20:33:15.479278 IP resolver.lell.net.domain > valh4.lell.net.64639: 26929 1/0/0 (73)
20:33:15.479890 IP valh4.lell.net.16053 > resolver.lell.net.domain: 56556+ PTR? 255.107.154.15.in-addr.arpa. (45)
20:33:15.480197 IP valh4.lell.net.ssh > zz.domain.innetbcp.net.63897: P 540:1504(964) ack 1 win 96
