If you can nail it on the network side it's easy. Ethereal will record and
even graph different protocols for you.
On the phone side one there are specific tools but they cost usually a lot of
money. (Starting over $10K.) If it's coming in over a serial port one can rig
something to listen and record that, but you'll probably need to be handy
with a breakout box. (In effect it opens up the serial cable so you can
configure it the way you want to.)
I could not give you how to do that without just figuring out and doing it
myself and I'm afraid I don't have that kind of time.
