netstat
netstat is a command-line utility that displays network connections, routing tables, interface statistics, masquerade connections, and multicast memberships. While not directly capturing packets like tcpdump, it provides valuable context for understanding network activity and is often used alongside tcpdump.
traceroute
Traceroute is used to trace the route packets take to a network host. While not directly related to packet capture, it is often used to diagnose network connectivity issues which might be further investigated with tcpdump.
ifconfig
ifconfig is a system administration utility for configuring network interfaces. While it doesn't capture packets, it provides information about network interfaces (IP addresses, MAC addresses, etc.) that can be useful when using tcpdump.
