packet tracer

I would like to read the packet trafic over the ethernet connexion to the airport. There was a software named packet analyser many years ago, but can't find it.

Any suggestions ?


Regards

There are literally dozens of network packet analyzer software options out there. I suggest that you do a simple Internet search on this term and you'll see what I mean.

Sorry, but not knowing your level of experience with packet tracing software it would be difficult to offer what may, or not may be, easy to use. Most collect raw data and it would be up to you to "filter" through it.


However, there are others that do provide a more user friendly interface that identifies what application is sending information out to the Internet and to where. One that I would suggest is Little Snitch.
