Tcpdump is a command-line packet analyzer used for capturing and analyzing network traffic. Known for its lightweight and scriptable nature, it serves as an alternative to Wireshark for users needing a text-based interface. Tcpdump utilizes the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) for efficient data capture and is widely respected for its reliability and effectiveness in network diagnostics and security analysis.
