Sniffnet

# Open-source Network Monitoring # Traffic Analysis # Network Security # Packet Sniffer # PCAP # GitHub Project # Windows # Linux # macOS Sniffnet is an open-source network monitoring tool that aims to make complex network traffic analysis intuitive and easy to understand. Compared to professional packet sniffing tools like Wireshark, Sniffnet is more geared towards everyday network observation for regular users and developers: you can see real-time upload and download traffic, connected hosts, accessed domain names, IP geographical locations, and which applications are connecting to the network. It retains professional capabilities such as traffic filtering, PCAP import/export, and multi-network card monitoring, while lowering the usage threshold through a clear visual interface.

Software Features

- Real-time Traffic Monitoring: Visually see the current upload and download speeds and overall traffic changes.
