Wireshark

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)

iodine

This is a piece of software that lets you tunnel IPv4 data through a DNS server. This can be usable in different situations where internet access is firewalled, but DNS queries are allowed. It runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD and needs a TUN/TAP device. The bandwidth is ... [More] assymetrical with limited upstream and up to 1 Mbit/s downstream. [Less]

NDISwrapper

Some vendors refuses to release specs or even a binary Linux driver for their WLAN cards. ndiswrapper tries to solve this by making a kernel module that can load Ndis (Windows network driver API) drivers. The goal is not to implement all of the Ndis API, but to implement the functions needed to get cards without Linux drivers to work.

ettercap

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 established connection and filtering on the fly is also possible, keeping the connection synchronized. Many ... [More] 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]

Aircrack-NG

Aircrack-ng is an 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK keys cracking program that can recover keys once enough data packets have been captured. It implements the standard FMS attack along with some optimizations like KoreK attacks, thus making the attack much faster compared to other WEP cracking tools. In fact ... [More] aircrack is a set of tools for auditing wireless networks. [Less]

Wellenreiter wireless penetration tool

Wellenreiter is a GTK/Perl wireless network discovery and auditing tool. Prism2, Lucent, and Cisco based cards are supported. It is the easiest to use Linux scanning tool. No card configuration has to be done anymore. The whole look and feel is pretty self-explaining. It can discover networks ... [More] (BSS/IBSS), and detects ESSID broadcasting or non-broadcasting networks and their WEP capabilities and the manufacturer automatically. DHCP and ARP traffic are decoded and displayed to give you further information about the networks. An ethereal/tcpdump-compatible dumpfile and an Application savefile will be automaticly created. gpsd can be used to track the location of the discovered networks. [Less]

netsniff-ng

netsniff-ng is is a free, performant Linux network analyzer and networking toolkit. The gain of performance is reached by zero-copy mechanisms, so that the kernel does not need to copy packets from kernelspace to userspace and vice versa. netsniff-ng consists of much more than only a network ... [More] analyzer. Next to the zero-copy sniffer itself, further tools like trafgen, a powerful zero-copy network packet generator, or ifpps, a tool that provides top-like kernel networking statistics, and curvetun, a lightweight curve25519-based multiuser IP tunnel, are being shipped. [Less]

WireSPY

Network Packet Sniffer based on pcap library

PEWIT

This is PEWIT, Polling Enlightens WIreless neTworks. It serves a so-called "Polling Method" to solve the hidden station problem in wireless networks. Thanks to this scheduling algorithm, no packet collision will occur in theory. So, PEWIT makes outdoor wireless networks more efficient.
