Nast - Network Analyzer Sniffer Tool

README


Required libraries:

Libnet 1.1.1 (*)
Libpcap 0.8.1 (**)

(Pthread support)

(*) www.packetfactory.net/libnet
(**) www.tcpdump.org

Raccomanded libraries:

Libncurses (*)

(*) www.gnu.org/software/ncurses/ncurses.html

Installation

  1. tar xvfz nast-x.y.z.tar.gz (*)
  2. cd nast-x.y.z
  3. ./configure (./configure --help for help)
  4. make (make help for help)
  5. make install (you must be root if you want to install in default prefix)

Read accepted options with "nast -h" and run with "nast [options]". If you need help use manpage (nast(8)).

(*) x.y.z is the release version.

Ncurses, even they aren't necessary, are STRONGLY recommended for a better use of the plugins, specially TCP stream and byte counting!

Use

The use of Nast under shell is quite easy and the man page should be enought. The use of Nast with Ncurses graphical interface is a little bit more complex, so you should read the README_NCURSES for avoid problems (press "h" for runtime help)!
