Built using the Carnivore Library for Processing. View files and source code
Carnivore is a surveillance tool for data networks. At the heart of the
project is CarnivorePE, a software application that listens to all
Internet traffic (email, web surfing, etc.) on a specific local network.
Next, CarnivorePE serves this data stream to interfaces called
"clients." These clients are designed to animate, diagnose, or interpret
the network traffic in various ways. Use CarnivorePE to run Carnivore
clients from your own desktop, or use it to make your own clients.
New features in version 2.2 include the ability to log packets to a text
file and the ability to record and playback capture sessions. Read the
change log.
Note: the format of the carnivore output string has been changed.
Clients will have to update their parsing routines. Read the reference page or consult this diagram.
CarnivorePE Version 2.2.3 (released October, 2007)
Carnivore Library for Processing Version 2.2.3 (released October, 2007)
* Note about Processing: You must be using Java version 1.5 or higher. If
you are using Windows, this means you need to download the
"expert" version of Processing called "Processing (Without
Java)." (Read this support thread for more info.)
Then, make sure you have Java version 1.5 installed
separately from Sun.
Mac people can get the lastest Java via OSX's Software Update.
This library does work on Linux too -- read
this thread
for Linux install/troubleshooting info.
