PacketMonitor Tool

Introducing My PacketMonitor Tool

I’m thrilled to present PacketMonitor, an open-source project hosted on GitHub. This post outlines what PacketMonitor does and how it supports network traffic analysis.

What is PacketMonitor?

PacketMonitor is a network monitoring tool designed to capture and analyze network packets. It provides insights into the traffic flowing through a network, helping users understand communication patterns and identify potential security issues.

What It Does

The tool captures packets on a specified network interface and processes them to extract key information, such as source and destination IPs, protocols, and packet contents. It logs this data for analysis, allowing users to:

  • Monitor real-time network activity.
  • Inspect packet details for troubleshooting or security investigations.

Getting Started

To try PacketMonitor, visit the GitHub repository for setup instructions. Typically, you’ll need to:

  1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/kw-soft/PacketMonitor.git
  2. Install dependencies (e.g., Python libraries like scapy).
  3. Run the tool on a compatible network interface.

Check the repository’s documentation for specific requirements and usage details.

Wrapping Up

PacketMonitor is a straightforward tool for anyone interested in network analysis or cybersecurity. I hope it helps you gain visibility into your network’s activity. Explore the project on GitHub, give it a star if you find it useful, and share your feedback!

Stay secure,
Kevin
