	I'd suggest installing WireShark -- but at that level, one had better
understand how to find information about the various protocols first (like:
the many Internet RFCs) so one can decode the data portion carrying the
top-level protocol... While WireShark will break down the Ethernet, IP, and
TCP/UDP/ICMP headers, reading an HTTP request packet "data".
