[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 3.0.712, Package name: darkstat-3.0.712, Maintainer: bartosz.kuzma

Effectively, it's a packet sniffer which runs as a background process
on a cable/DSL router, gathers all sorts of useless but interesting
statistics, and serves them over HTTP.

Features:
* Traffic graphs.
* Tracks traffic per host.
* Tracks traffic per TCP and UDP port for each host.
* Embedded web-server with deflate compression.
* Asynchronous reverse DNS resolution using a child process.
* Small. Portable. Single-threaded. Efficient.
