Capture Traffic By An IP Address Or A Network
tcpdump can filter out traffic based on IP address, and a Network, examples below.
Capture Traffic by an IP Address
To capture traffic for an IP address, we can simply use host argument.
$ sudo tcpdump host 1.1.1.1This will capture both outgoing, and incoming traffic for an IP address, 1.1.1.1 in example above.
Capture Traffic from one direction
If you only want to capture traffic from one direction, we can use src or dst argument.
$ sudo tcpdump src 1.1.1.1
$ sudo tcpdump dst 1.1.1.1Capture Traffic by a Network
To capture traffic from a network or subnet, we can use net argument.
$ sudo tcpdump net 1.2.3.0/24Source: Danielmiessler
