All you need are the X libraries to run a remote window.  If you can
install wireshark on the box, you can run 'ssh -Y' to log in from some
other machine that has an X display.  Then when you start wireshark it
will open a new window on your desktop.  Otherwise you have to make
tcpdump capture to a file (see the -s and -w options) and copy the file
back to where wireshark can decode it for you.
