packet-o-matic

the real time packet processor

About

packet-o-matic is a real time packet processor under the GPL license. It mainly does network forensics. It is able to dump, log multiple informations about various types of connections. It reads the packet from an input module, match the packet using rules and connection tracking information and then send it to a target module. For example, it can read an HTTP connection, output a log file in the same format than apache log files and also dump credential informations along with the payload of the request.
This has been tested on Linux/x86, Linux/x86_64, Linux/hppa, Linux/sparc, FreeBSD/x86, Solaris/sparc and OSX/ppc.
