Suppose if I want to capture any packets for my openmpi program, if I can't filter packets by ports, then how can the sniffer tell which packets are from/to any processes of my penmpi program?

Open MPI uses TCP, and does not use any fixed ports. We use whatever ports the
operating system gives us. At this time there is no way to specify what ports
