I tried this, but it seemed good to share that I found that socat absorbed my packets, such that network behavior was different while it was running than while it was not.
I'm having more luck with sudo tcpdump -vvnAi lo udp port 16571, where -vv makes it verbose, -n disables name resolution, -A outputs the packet content, -i lo sets the interface, and udp port 16571 says what packets to output.
Hi,
At https://labstreaminglayer.readthedocs.io/info/network-connectivity.html#unix-linux-macos it is recommended to use
socat
for network troubleshooting on Linux.I tried this, but it seemed good to share that I found that socat absorbed my packets, such that network behavior was different while it was running than while it was not.
I'm having more luck with
sudo tcpdump -vvnAi lo udp port 16571
, where-vv

disables name resolution,-A
outputs the packet content,-i lo
sets the interface, andudp port 16571
says what packets to output.
