mtrace is a program to trace the routes taken by IPv4 multicast
traffic flows.
klg is a looking glass written in PHP that can access and report
back routing information from Cisco, Juniper and Zebra/Quagga
routers. It can also lookup AS numbers to names via WHOIS interfaces,
and supports friendly BGP community names via MySQL database.
The OpenLLDP project aims to provide a comprehensive implementation of the
IEEE standard 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol. LLDP is an industry
standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary Link-Layer protocols
such as Extreme's EDP (Extreme Discovery Protocol) and CDP (Cisco Discovery
Protocol).
SNMP::Info gives an object oriented interface to information
obtained through SNMP. This module is geared towards network devices.
Subclasses exist for a number of network devices and common MIBs.
The information may be coming from any number of MIB files and is very
vendor specific. SNMP::Info provides you a common method for all
supported devices.
Adding support for your own device is easy, and takes little much SNMP
knowledge.
The module is not limited to network devices. Any MIB or device can be
given an objected oriented front-end by making a module that consists of a
couple hashes. See EXTENDING SNMP::INFO.
A set of utilities to configure and monitor several popular
wireless access points using SNMP. Among other things, they
allow access restrictions, MAC authorization and WEP encryption
for access points and "wireless gateways" by Linksys, Netgear,
SMC, and D-Link.

rcpd is a RCP server intended specifically for router
or network device clients. It is used to transfer
configurations, boot images, and kernels images
(eg: IOS) to the devices.
These files are often tranfered with TFTP, but TFTP
has reliability and speed issues and file size
limitations due to it's protocol specification and
underlying transport; while RCP is not affected.
Sysmon is a network monitoring tool designed to provide high
performance and accurate network monitoring.
This tool is available in the public domain for anyone to use
it that is interested. It provides better performance and
checking capabilities than other tools such as Rover, Nocmon
(not this: Nocmonitor),Whatsup, Big Brother, and other such tools.
Currently supported protocols include SMTP, IMAP, HTTP,TCP,
UDP, NNTP, and PING tests.
SBLIM (pronounced "sublime"), the Standards Based Linux
Instrumentation for Manageability is an IBM-initiated Open Source
project, intended to enhance the manageability of GNU/Linux
systems. It does so by enabling WBEM, Web Based Enterprise Management.
Vidalia is a graphical Tor controller based on Qt 4.x.
Tcpreplay is aimed at testing the performance of a Network Intrusion Detection
System by replaying real background network traffic in which to hide attacks.
Tcpreplay allows you to control the speed at which the traffic is replayed,
and can replay arbitrary libpcap traces.
Unlike programmatically-generated artificial traffic which doesn't exercise
the application/protocol inspection that a NIDS performs, and doesn't
reproduce the real-world anomalies that appear on production networks
(asymmetric routes, traffic bursts/lulls, fragmentation, retransmissions,
etc.), tcpreplay allows for exact replication of real traffic seen on real
networks.
