doing this this requires admin access on network device.
in brief :
* lets say a switch a 10 ports and you can configure lets say port 7 to get copy of data passing through other ports by configuring port mirroring to port 7. * connect a second nic/ethernet card on a machine and connect to port 7 of switch. * now if you capture the packets on second nic on the machine you can capture all the packets going through the network.

you can find a lot of help just search for "how to setup Port mirroring" on google
here few pages that explain the basic  ,
