tcpdump [1] is a packet analyzer [2] which is able to intercept and log networktraffic. Packet analyzers are particularly helpfull in detecting networking issues.

Example

In a terminal window type:

sudo tcpdump -i lo udp port 6454 -vv -X

The resulting output will show UDP datagrams which are captured on the loopback interface on port 6454 (Art-Net).
