Description : framework to netdude program
libnetdude is the base of the netdude program. It is the core of the framework
and the place where the packet manipulations are performed. It allows you to
implement trace file manipulations at a much higher level of abstraction than
code written directly on top of the pcap library. It also provides a
command-line interface that directly lets you script all packet-mangling
capabilities provided by the set of plugins you have installed. Libnetdude's
features include:
* Convenient abstractions for trace files, trace parts & areas, packets,
filters, and packet iterators.
* Ability to edit arbitrarily large traces (subject to the large-file size
limit on your OS). Traces are navigated using timestamps and fractional
offsets.
* Ability to insert and delete packets.
* Flexible plugin architecture: Protocol plugins allow interpretation of
arbitrary protocol data. Feature plugins provide helpful building blocks
(like anonymizers, statistical analyzers, demultiplexers, etc.) in a reusable
fashion.
* Structured packet data. Raw packet data is interpreted as much as the
installed protocol plugins permit it to. No need to write your own protocol
analyzer any more.
* Familiar tcpdump output: libnetdude can associate a tcpdump process with each
trace file, providing tcpdump's familiar output for individual packets. The
GUI application is making extensive use of this.
