  2. Promiscuous mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promiscuous_mode

    In non-promiscuous mode, when a NIC receives a frame, it drops it unless the frame is addressed to that NIC's MAC address or is a broadcast or multicast addressed frame. In promiscuous mode, however, the NIC allows all frames through, thus allowing the computer to read frames intended for other machines or network devices.

  3. Berkeley Packet Filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Packet_Filter

    Another user-mode interpreter is uBPF, which supports JIT and eBPF (without cBPF). Its code has been reused to provide eBPF support in non-Linux systems. [6] Microsoft's eBPF on Windows builds on uBPF and the PREVAIL formal verifier. [7] rBPF, a Rust rewrite of uBPF, is used by the Solana blockchain platform as the execution engine. [8]

  4. XMODEM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMODEM

    Keith Petersen made a minor update to always turn on "quiet mode", and called the result XMODEM. [3] [4] XMODEM, like most file transfer protocols, breaks up the original data into a series of "packets" that are sent to the receiver, along with additional information allowing the receiver to determine whether that packet was correctly received ...

  5. Wireshark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireshark

    Wireshark is very similar to tcpdump, but has a graphical front-end and integrated sorting and filtering options.. Wireshark lets the user put network interface controllers into promiscuous mode (if supported by the network interface controller), so they can see all the traffic visible on that interface including unicast traffic not sent to that network interface controller's MAC address.

  6. PF (firewall) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PF_(firewall)

    PF (Packet Filter, also written pf) is a BSD licensed stateful packet filter, a central piece of software for firewalling. It is comparable to netfilter ( iptables ), ipfw , and ipfilter . PF was developed for OpenBSD , but has been ported to many other operating systems .

  7. Generic Stream Encapsulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_Stream_Encapsulation

    Addressing mode 00 Indicates that a 6 bytes label is present and shall be used for filtering. 01 Indicates that a 3 bytes label is present and shall be used for filtering. 10 No label present. All receivers shall process this packet. 11 Label re-use: no label is present; the label is the same as the previous GSE packet in the same base band frame.

  8. Protocol-Independent Multicast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protocol-Independent_Multicast

    Dense mode multicast is one mode that multicast can use to construct a tree for sending packets to the multicast subscribers. It is an alternative to sparse mode. The basic assumption behind dense mode is that the multicast packet stream has receivers at most locations. Sparse mode assumes relatively fewer receivers.

  9. Monitor mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_mode

    Monitor mode, or RFMON (Radio Frequency MONitor) mode, allows a computer with a wireless network interface controller (WNIC) to monitor all traffic received on a wireless channel. Unlike promiscuous mode , which is also used for packet sniffing , monitor mode allows packets to be captured without having to associate with an access point or ad ...
