Netsniff-NG High Performance Sniffer 0.5.7

Posted Jun 30, 2012

Authored by Netsniff-NG Workgroup | Site netsniff-ng.org

netsniff-ng is is a free, performant Linux network sniffer for packet inspection. The gain of performance is reached by 'zero-copy' mechanisms, so that the kernel does not need to copy packets from kernelspace to userspace. For this purpose netsniff-ng is libpcap independent, but nevertheless supports the pcap file format for capturing, replaying and performing offline-analysis of pcap dumps. netsniff-ng can be used for protocol analysis, reverse engineering and network debugging.

Changes: This is a major release with lots of bug fixes and new features. Highlights include new dissectors for ICMPv6, IGMP, VLAN Q-in-Q, and MPLS, raw 802.11 support for capturing and replaying, and much more.
