Description

EtherApe is a network monitoring tool for Unix systems that visually represents network traffic, inspired by Etherman, with hosts and connections dynamically changing size based on the amount of traffic and utilizing color coding for different protocols. It accommodates a variety of devices, such as FDDI, ISDN, PPP, SLIP, and WLAN, and supports multiple encapsulation methods. Users have the option to filter the traffic they see and can capture data in real-time or extract it from a file. Additionally, statistics for each node can be exported for further examination. The software features modes for link layer, IP, and TCP, enabling users to concentrate on particular levels of the protocol stack. Each node and link is displayed with comprehensive details, including a breakdown of protocols and traffic metrics. Released under the GNU General Public License, EtherApe is open source. A unique aspect of the interface allows a single node to be focused on while multiple selected nodes can be organized in a circular arrangement, complemented by an alternative display mode that aligns nodes in vertical columns. This versatility makes EtherApe a powerful tool for network analysis and visualization.

Description

SmokePing is an advanced tool designed for measuring latency with precision. It not only records and showcases latency, but also tracks latency distribution and packet loss metrics. Utilizing RRDtool, SmokePing effectively manages a long-term data archive and generates visually appealing graphs that provide real-time insights into the status of various network connections. You can interact with any graph in detail mode, enabling you to highlight specific areas of interest using the navigator graph. Furthermore, it allows for the display of information from numerous targets within a single graph. Through a centralized Smokeping Master node, multiple Slave nodes can be deployed, inheriting their configurations from the master, which facilitates the ability to ping a single target from diverse locations simultaneously. The tool now incorporates standard deviation in various instances to quantify the fluctuations in round trip times as represented by the smoke signals. SmokePing supports a broad range of probes, including basic ping, web requests, and even custom protocols, making it highly versatile. Additionally, its master/slave deployment model enhances the capability to conduct measurements from various sources concurrently, providing a comprehensive view of network performance.
