Most people will get a laptop that runs some kind a sniffer software to use for this. Our network group has a couple of these. Some versions of unix have network tracing capability but they tend to be oriented to displaying ethernet frames rather than IP packets.

In Unix/Linux...You can use: tcpdump, ethereal, iptraf...

tcpdump: default was install with any version UnixSmilie

you can also get iptables to log packets with certain aspects. Most people will use a sniffer like COLD, HUNT, ntop (and the ones mentioned above)
