Passifist, Passive Network Discovery Tool
------------------------------------------------------------------------
DETAILS
Passifist is a tool for passive network discovery. It could be used for a
number of different things, but was mainly written to discover hosts
without actively probing a network. The tool analyzes broadcast traffic
and has a plugin architecture through which it dissects and reports
services found.
Information like SQL servers or Terminal servers in the network can be
determined simply by analyzing SMB broadcasts packets. The TFTP plugin can
identify broadcasting Cisco routers and the IPX plugin dissects IPX-SAP
traffic.
Passifist has been tested on various Linux distributions and on FreeBSD.
It may or may not run on any other libpcap-aware platform.
The initial version has support for the following protocols/plugins:
CDP - Cisco Discovery Protocol
CIM - Compaq Insight Manager
HSRP - Hot Standby Routing Protocol
IPX - The IPX protocol
NETOP - Netop Remote Control
SMB - SMB and NetBIOS
TFTP - Trivial File Transfer Protocol
The results can be stored using the following storage providers:
TXT - Text file
ADVTXT - A separate logfile is created for each protocol
MYSQL - MySQL RDBMS
MSSQL - MS SQL Server RDBMS
GENSQL - Generic SQL script provider
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
