[CentOS] Show IP Traffic on a port

2008-05-20 Thread Joseph L. Casale
I am trying to determine the root of an issue I am having.
How can I watch traffic destined to a specific port on my CentOS 5.1
box to see if its even hitting it? It would be udp traffic.

Thanks!

If you're using IPTABLES on your CentOS box, then you can watch the 
traffic hit your rules using watch -d iptables -nvL.  The -d will 
highlight changes (so you can spot them) and you should see the number 
of packets change as each packet is processed by your rules.


If you have a specific chain name that deals with your port, then add 
that after the -nvL in the command - e.g. watch -d iptables -nvL myChain

Try tcpdump -i interface udp port port.
