socat -v TCP4-LISTEN:80 TCP4:localhost:81 will do the same and is way more readable

George AvasarSo...
If I get it, which I might not, you're creating a fifo device and using netcat to port forward traffic from port 80/tcp to port 81/tcp, and you want to see the traffic too.
How does that relate to you title? Wireshark can't port forward.
As for zod's comment...well, I think your on the right track using nc. It's installed everywhere and a tip that needs you to install socat wouldn't be as useful.
