TrafficWatch: Analyzing Network Traffic with PCAP Packet Sniffer
TrafficWatch, a packet sniffer tool, allows you to monitor and analyze network traffic from PCAP files. It provides insights into various network protocols and can help with network troubleshooting, security analysis, and more.
Features
- Protocol-specific packet analysis for ARP, ICMP, TCP, UDP, DNS, DHCP, HTTP, SNMP, LLMNR, and NetBIOS.
- Packet filtering based on protocol, source IP, destination IP, source port, destination port, and more.
- Summary statistics on captured packets.
- Interactive mode for in-depth packet inspection.
- Timestamps for each captured packet.
- User-friendly colored output for improved readability.
Requirements
- Python 3.x
- scapy
- argparse
- pyshark
- colorama
Installation
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/HalilDeniz/TrafficWatch.git
Navigate to the project directory:
cd TrafficWatch
Install the required dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Usage
python3 trafficwatch.py --help
usage: trafficwatch.py [-h] -f FILE [-p {ARP,ICMP,TCP,UDP,DNS,DHCP,HTTP,SNMP,LLMNR,NetBIOS}] [-c COUNT]
Packet Sniffer Tool
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f FILE, --file FILE Path to the .pcap file to analyze
-p {ARP,ICMP,TCP,UDP,DNS,DHCP,HTTP,SNMP,LLMNR,NetBIOS}, --protocol {ARP,ICMP,TCP,UDP,DNS,DHCP,HTTP,SNMP,LLMNR,NetBIOS}
Filter by specific protocol
-c COUNT, --count COUNT
Number of packets to display
To analyze packets from a PCAP file, use the following command:
python trafficwatch.py -f path/to/your.pcap
To specify a protocol filter (e.g., HTTP) and limit the number of displayed packets (e.g., 10), use:
python trafficwatch.py -f path/to/your.pcap -p HTTP -c 10
Options
-f
or--file
: Path to the PCAP file for analysis.-p
or--protocol
: Filter packets by protocol (ARP, ICMP, TCP, UDP, DNS, DHCP, HTTP, SNMP, LLMNR, NetBIOS).-c
or--count
: Limit the number of displayed packets.
