Probably the most popular related project with GUI is [Wireshark](https://www.wireshark.org/) > Wireshark is the world’s foremost and widely-used network protocol > analyzer. It lets you see what’s happening on your network at a > microscopic level and is the de facto (and often de jure) standard > across many commercial and non-profit enterprises, government > agencies, and educational institutions. Wireshark development thrives > thanks to the volunteer contributions of networking experts around the > globe and is the continuation of a project started by Gerald Combs in > 1998. `sudo apt-get install wireshark` And without GUI you have [tshark](https://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/tshark.html) used by wireshark. > TShark is a network protocol analyzer. It lets you capture packet data > from a live network, or read packets from a previously saved capture > file, either printing a decoded form of those packets to the standard > output or writing the packets to a file. TShark's native capture file > format is pcapng format, which is also the format used by wireshark > and various other tools. `sudo apt-get install tshark`
