My current tool of choice for on-demand console traffic monitoring is tcptrack.[0] Uses libpcap so accepts the same filtering syntax as tcpdump.

It can be pretty CPU intensive, so I would recommend against running it on production perimeter systems. Also, the 2 second default retention period is a bit short.

But all in all very handy.
