Product Description:

MacSniffer is a front end to the built-in 'tcpdump' packet sniffer on Mac OS X. MacSniffer allows you to view all of the traffic on a network connection, such as ethernet.

MacSniffer includes a filter editing interface and a filter library to easily construct and reuse packet filters to view a subset of all the traffic on the connection, such as just that destined for a specific host or port.

You can choose the level of detail you want captured, from just the minimal packet headers (showing source and destination hosts and ports) up to a full hex and ASCII dump of the packet contents.

MacSniffer can be useful for diagnosing many network problems, debugging client/server programs, and scanning for particular network exploits in real time.

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.2

MacSniffer ReviewWorking fine on 10.5.4 - Version: 1.0b1, 8/20/2008 07:42AM PST

Quite a nice little tool, looks good and certainly did what I wanted it for.

I don't know about it's ease of use as I am new to sniffing, and haven't used the underlying tool, but I got there in the end
