1 - Wireshark
If you have brew
installed it's trivial to install Wireshark via a Cask.
$ brew cask install wireshark
This will install both the GUI and CLI versions. The GUI version is called wireshark
and should show up in Launcher. The CLI version should show up in your $PATH
as tshark
.
GUI
Invoking the GUI will show you a selection window from where you can select which network interface to analyze. NOTE: on my system we'll use en0
.
A double click on en0
and you're in selecting packet data.
CLI
To use the CLI it's about as difficult.
$ tshark -i en0 | head
Capturing on 'Wi-Fi: en0'

If you want something even lighter, you can use tcpdump
to capture all types of traffic, not just TCP.

as tshark
.
GUI
Invoking the GUI will show you a selection window from where you can select which network interface to analyze. NOTE: on my system we'll use en0
.
A double click on en0
and you're in selecting packet data.
CLI
To use the CLI it's about as difficult.
$ tshark -i en0 | head

NOTE: Wireshark has excellent tutorials and guides on line once you're past the install.
2 - tcpdump
If you want something even lighter, you can use tcpdump
to capture all types of traffic, not just TCP.
$ tcpdump -i en0 -n | head
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on en0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes
