Elementary Research on Construction of Network Packet Sniffer Repository
Qiu Sha · Journal of Kunming University · 2010
To present an elementary model of network packet sniffer repository through the resources of the repository including network protocol packets and network security data samples which are captured by host-built-in sniffer software,in addition to network traffic traces collected and uploaded by Internet users,all of which are attached to analysis reports,sorted and stored in the database.The purpose is to offer students lots of qualified learning resources about network protocols.Meanwhile,four critical issues relating to building the repository have been also discussed,namely,sniffer software selection,experimental environment set-up,sniffer host deployment,privacy protection.It is proved that the repository is a cost-effective way in computer network teaching but also a useful way for network security research by using the resources.
