Packet Sniffer Project

Network Sniffer software project

Network Sniffer Introduction:

In computer network communication system data is transferred in the form of packets. Data is divided in to limited size and constructed using buffers before transmitting data using TCP, UDP protocol.

Any type of data like web page retrievals, email..etc are transmitted using packets.

Using Packet sniffer we can capture packets that are transmitting and receiving packets from our network and find out source id and destination id with encrypted message and time stamp.  This application is also useful for analyzing traffic in out network.

Network sniffing software is used for finding confidential details  ( passwords, session details and other sensitive information)

Packet Analysis details:

This software is useful for analyzing FTP, HTTP, ICMP, IPV4, IPV6, JDpackets, pop3, SMTP, SSH, TCP, Telnet, UDP.

Project Source Code consists of Analyzer source code, stats source code, UI design source code.

Network Sniffer Applications:

Software is useful for administrator to analyze packets and fish out anomalous connections and intruders.         

This can be used in software development for analyzing packets transmission. Ex: While testing email applications we can analyze packets details.
