Do the following:

iptrace -i en0 /tmp/ipt

The iptrace backgrounds. Find its process id and kill it when you are
ready. Then run

ipreport -rns /tmp/ipt >/tmp/ipr

and look at the output. The current version of Info does not document
the r, n and s options but they are quite useful for layering the output.
