  RPCAP, Remote Packet Capture System
------------------------------------------------------------------------

DETAILS

RPCAP is a Remote Packet Capture system. It enables you to run a packet
capture program (the server) on a target computer, which will sniff the
network traffic on that system, and uplink the captured packets to another
host (the client), where the captured packets can be processed, analyzed
and archived. The rpcap system thus consists of two separate processes,
the server (or agent) which captures network traffic on a remote system,
and a client, which receives and processes these packets. The server code
is a standalone executable program which uses the libpcap packet capture
library to capture network traffic. The client is a library called
librpcap, which is linked to a user program and used on the client system
in a manner identical to libpcap, to receive and process the captured
packets.
