rabbitmq AMQP protocol is only listenning to loopback interface but I need to capture the packets on other interface such as enp0s3/eth0 in wireshark using ubuntu

[nicostw22]

Hello there,

I am using python AMQP client for rabbit-server to create exchange, queue, and binding but when I run the code then I can only capture the packets in loopback (lo) interface but I need it the work in other interfaces such as eth0/enps03 in ubuntu. In order to capture packets from another machine such as using Kali Linux to launched an attack on the rabbitmq-server. Since it is working only on loopback interface I can not capture any packets from external for the AMQP protocol.

Please help me on this matter as I need it to work on eth0/enps03 interface and thanks a lot in advance.
