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

Tcpdump serves as a robust command-line tool for analyzing network packets, enabling users to view the details of packets sent or received over the network their computer is connected to. Compatible with a variety of Unix-like operating systems such as Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and macOS, it leverages the libpcap library for capturing network traffic effectively. This utility can process packets either directly from a network interface card or from a previously recorded packet file, and it offers the flexibility to direct output to either standard output or a file. Users have the option to apply BPF-based filters to manage the volume of packets being analyzed, making it particularly useful in environments experiencing heavy network traffic. Tcpdump is distributed as free software under the BSD license, which promotes accessibility. Moreover, it is often included as a native package or port in numerous operating systems, making updates and ongoing maintenance straightforward for users. This ease of use contributes to its popularity among network administrators and analysts alike.
