Tool to trace packets within same machine

Wireshark like tools can capture in coming or out going messages to our machine, is there any tool available which trace packets communication between our own machine. Like if I have client and server on same machine but port is different is it possible to trace packets?

Thanks in advance.

Windows TCP/IP stack does not implement a network loopback lo interface. See this page, for information.

You can instead use RawCap for your purpose, look it up here. You can use the command RawCap.exe 127.0.0.1 dumpfile.pcap
