netsniff-ng is a free Linux networking toolkit, a Swiss army knife for your daily Linux network plumbing if you will. Its gain of performance is reached by zero-copy mechanisms, so that on packet reception and transmission the kernel does not need to copy packets from kernel space to user space and vice versa. Our toolkit can be used for network development and analysis, debugging, auditing, or network reconnaissance.

Features

  • Fast zero-copy analyzer, pcap capturing and replaying tool
  • Multithreaded low-level zero-copy network packet generator
  • High-level packet generator for HW/SW appliances with Cisco-CLI
  • Berkeley Packet Filter compiler, Linux BPF JIT disassembler
  • Top-like netfilter connection tracking tool
  • An autonomous system (AS) trace route utility
