Nifmon is a curses-based tool for FreeBSD which can be used to monitor network
interfaces (also tun devices).
It displays continously updated statistics for the following quantities:
- total amount of bytes/packets transferred in/out
- bytes/packets transferred in/out during the last second/minute/hour
- a stripped down tcpdump output
You will need super-user permissions in order to use nifmon.
The Packet Debugger (pdb) is a program which allows people to work
with packet streams as if they were working with a source code
debugger. Users can list, inspect, modify, and retransmit any packet
from captured files as well as work with live packet capture.

The olsr.org OLSR daemon is an implementation of the Optimized Link
State Routing protocol. OLSR is a routing protocol for mobile ad-hoc
networks. The protocol is pro-active, table driven and utilizes a
technique called multipoint relaying for message flooding.
If you use Perl to manage interactive sessions with the
command-line interfaces of networked appliances, then you might find
this module useful.
Net::Appliance::Phrasebook is a simple module that contains a number of
dictionaries for the command-line interfaces of some popular network
appliances.
It also supports the use of custom phrasebooks, and of hiearchies of
dictionaries within phrasebooks.
Automating command line interface (CLI) interactions is not a new idea, but can
be tricky to implement. This module aims to provide a simple and manageable
interface to CLI interactions, supporting:
- SSH, Telnet and Serial-Line connections
- Unix and Windows support
- Reuseable device command phrasebooks
Net::HTTP::Spore is an implementation of the SPORE specification.
To use this client, you need to use or to write a SPORE specification of an API.
A description of the SPORE specification format is available at [1].

This is a Perl 5 module that retrieves and parses information from the
InterNIC 'whois' database. If you are behind a firewall, you probably
won't be able to use this module.
This version supports only the information about domains. Future work
may include information about people and other entities about which
the InterNIC keeps data.
When building network applications, it is often helpful to have
a network accessible control and diagnostic interface. This module
provides such an interface for POE applications. By default, it
provides a fairly limited set of commands but is easily extended
to provide whatever command set you require.
POE::Component::Jabber is a module that simplies for the POE
developer, access to the Jabber protocol through the use of one of
the four Client classes. With built in events for common Jabber
packets, all a POE developer need do is provide an event and arguments
for most events so the responses to the requests can be properly
handled by the coder.
This Module provides a quick and easy way to build complex SOAP data
and header structures for use with SOAP::Lite.
It primarily provides a wrapper around SOAP::Serializer and
SOAP::Data (or SOAP::Header) enabling you to generate complex XML
within your SOAP request or response.
