Don't translate foreign IPv4 address
"-f" option tells tcpdump not translate foreign IPv4 address. Use tcpdump to monitor packets from port 80:
# tcpdump port 80
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on enp0s3, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes
Open another terminal and run following command:
