Packet Tracer is a cross-platform visual simulation tool designed by Cisco Systems that allows users to create network topologies and imitate modern computer networks. The software allows users to simulate the configuration of Cisco routers and switches using a simulated command line interface.
A packet generator or packet builder is a type of software that generates random packets or allows the user to construct detailed custom packets. Depending on the network medium and operating system, packet generators utilize raw sockets , NDIS function calls, or direct access to the network adapter kernel-mode driver .
Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer.It is used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and communications protocol development, and education. . Originally named Ethereal, the project was renamed Wireshark in May 2006 due to tradema
In packet switching networks, traffic flow, packet flow or network flow is a sequence of packets from a source computer to a destination, which may be another host, a multicast group, or a broadcast domain. RFC 2722 defines traffic flow as "an artificial logical equivalent to a call or connection."
The Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF; also BSD Packet Filter, classic BPF or cBPF) is a network tap and packet filter which permits computer network packets to be captured and filtered at the operating system level.
Each SCTP packet consists, in addition to the common header, of chunks. Each chunk has a common format, but the contents can vary. The green bytes in the diagram above signify one chunk. Chunk type An 8-bit value predefined by the IETF to identify the contents of the chunk value field. Chunk flags
Packet Design was an Austin, Texas-based network performance management software company credited with pioneering route analytics technology. This network monitoring technology analyzes routing protocols and structures in meshed IP networks by participating as a peer in the network to passively “listen” to Layer 3 routing protocol exchanges between routers for the purpose of network ...
PC/TCP Packet Driver is a networking API for MS-DOS, PC DOS, and later x86 DOS implementations such as DR-DOS, FreeDOS, etc.It implements the lowest levels of a TCP/IP stack, where the remainder is typically implemented either by terminate-and-stay-resident drivers or as a library linked into an application program.
