Wireshark is the world's foremost network protocol analyzer, and is the de facto (and often de jure) standard across many industries and educational institutions. (Wireshark was known as Ethereal until June 09, 2006)

ntop [Network Top]: ntop is a network probe that shows network usage in a way similar to what top does for processes. In interactive mode, it displays the network status on the user's terminal. ... [More] In Web mode, it acts as a Web server, creating an HTML dump of the network status. It sports a NetFlow/sFlow emitter/collector, an HTTP-based client interface for creating ntop-centric monitoring applications, and RRD for persistently storing traffic statistics. [Less]

Ettercap is a network sniffer/interceptor/logger for ethernet LANs. It supports active and passive dissection of many protocols (even ciphered ones, like SSH and HTTPS). Data injection in an ... [More] established connection and filtering on the fly is also possible, keeping the connection synchronized. Many sniffing modes were implemented to give you a powerful and complete sniffing suite. Plugins are supported. It has the ability to check whether you are in a switched LAN or not, and to use OS fingerprints (active or passive) to let you know the geometry of the LAN. [Less]

Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic.

iStumbler is the leading wireless discovery tool for Mac OS X, providing plugins for finding AirPort networks, Bluetooth devices and Bonjour services with your Mac.

netsniff-ng is a high performance command line packet analyzer written for Linux. In contrast to tcpdump and other libpcap-based packet analyzers, netsniff-ng maps incoming frames directly into a ... [More] circular receive buffer that can be accessed from user space without copying between address spaces. It can be used for debugging the local network, measuring performance throughput, or creating network statistics of incoming packets on central network nodes like routers or firewalls. [Less]

Detect the MIME type base on its name extension and content header. pymimemagic provide several method to guess it, include magic number based MagicDetector, file format based FileDetector, and RFC-compatible] MimeSniff.

Streem is a project which aims to provide a software solution to all network administrators for analyzing the streams in several location on their network and creating reports. The main purpose is to ... [More] build a tool that helps the administrator for identifying and detecting network issues and, by the way, improving the access for all users. This project contains two different parts : - The "probe" side, which is a kind of sniffer installed on any computer on the network. This one should have two network adapters : one for network capturing (promiscuous mode so without IP Address) and the other one for communicating with a server. In fact, the passive interface should be connected to a port which mirrors a backbone link. - The server side collects through a scheduling all the data computed by probes, and creates high level reports for displaying statistics to the administrator. Further, some plugins will be included in Streem : - A VoIP Component for analyzing RTP Streams and estimate the voice quality - An IDS/IPS Component for detecting malicious streams and prevent them if possible.

This software is written for the network traffic analysis research. It can be used to only sniff click stream packets by looking for some keywords in the payload. It saves the captured packets within ... [More] every 10-minutes interval. File names are set according to UTC time. [Less]
