The netsniff-ng toolkit's primary usage goal is to facilitate a network developer's / hacker's daily Linux plumbing. It can be used for network development, debugging, analysis, auditing or network reconnaissance. It consists of the following fixed set of utilities: * netsniff-ng: a zero-copy packet analyzer, pcap capturing/replaying tool * trafgen: a multithreaded low-level zero-copy network packet generator * mausezahn: high-level packet generator for HW/SW appliances with Cisco-CLI * ifpps: a top-like kernel networking and system statistics tool * curvetun: a lightweight curve25519-based multiuser IP tunnel * astraceroute: an autonomous system trace route and DPI testing utility * flowtop: a top-like netfilter connection tracking tool * bpfc: a Berkeley Packet Filter compiler with Linux extensions Have a look at the Documentation/ folder for further information, also at known issues under Documentation/KnownIssues. Carefully read the INSTALL document for the next steps in building netsniff-ng. Note that the toolkit is still quite young and under heavy development, not yet feature complete and in a quality level where we're satisfied with (i.e. for mausezahn). However, we're on a good way towards tackling all these goals. The netsniff-ng toolkit is an open source project covered by the GNU General Public License, version 2.0. For any questions or feedback about netsniff-ng you are welcome to leave us a message at . netsniff-ng is non-profit and provided in the hope, that it is found useful. The current project status can be considered as "working". In general, all tools have been tested by us to a great extend including their command-line options. In fact, many of our tools are used in a lot of production systems. However, we give no guarantee that our tools are free of bugs! If you spot some issues, contact us as described in REPORTING-BUGS. Also, have a look at our FAQ [2] for answering your questions. This project has received support from companies and institutions listed in Documentation/Sponsors. Thanks for contributing, we're thrilled to provide you with netsniff-ng! Happy packet hacking!
