We should use tcpdump tool for this purpose, of course, several ways are available.

Capturing OSPF packets on the fly

tcpdump -i eth0 ip[9] == 89

where OSPF ip protocol number is 89, and the protocol field is the 9th octet on the ip header.

Another way is:

tcpdump -i eth0 proto ospf

Writing captured packets to a file
