Trafd software suite provides a complete set of tools to collect and display statistics on network traffic. These tools allow users to monitor their networks and analyze traffic patterns to gain insights into network performance and security.
If you're in need of a tool to help you collect and visualize network traffic statistics, Trafd is the suite you've been searching for. The Trafd software is itself a daemon that listens on a BPF device that utilizes pcap to collect statistics which are then stored in a flat file database. To select and visualize your collected statistics, you can use Traflog.
Trafd has a variety of powerful features that make it a great choice for anyone looking for this type of solution. It can log all IP (TCP/UDP/other) traffic for a network interface, including information such as source/destination IP address, service port number (for TCP/UDP), number of data/header bytes of packets, and the date and time of the record. It stores all this accounting info in a simple, one-file-per-interface database.
Trafd is also very flexible when it comes to storing data. It can flush/restore in-memory cache data to/from the hard disk, and data can also be retrieved and stored via the network.
To use Trafd, you'll need a Unix box and libpcap. The software has been tested on both FreeBSD and Linux (i386 and amd64) platforms. If you're looking for a solution that supports 64-bit arch, you'll be happy to know that all Trafd tools have been revised to support this feature (tested on FreeBSD/amd64). Additionally, the tools now support database files that are over 2 GB in size.
In summary, Trafd is a powerful and flexible solution for collecting and visualizing network traffic statistics. If that's something you need, Trafd is definitely worth a look.
