RUDE stands for Real-time UDP Data Emitter and CRUDE for Collector for RUDE.
RUDE is a small and flexible program that generates traffic to the network,
which can be received and logged on the other side of the network with the
CRUDE. Currently these programs can generate and measure only UDP traffic.
Actually these tools were designed and coded bacause of the accuracy
limitations in the MGEN program.
With the exponential growth of the Internet, a central Whois database that
provides host and network information of systems connected to the Internet,
and electronic mail (email) addresses of the users of those systems has
proven to be very inefficient. The sheer size and effort needed to maintain
a centralized database necessitates an alternate, decentralized approach to
storing and retrieving this information.
RWhois is a Directory Services protocol which extends and enhances the Whois
concept in a hierarchical and scaleable fashion. It focuses on the
distribution of "network objects"--the data representing Internet resources
or people--and uses the inherently hierarchical nature of these network
objects (domain names, Internet Protocol (IP) networks, email addresses) to
more accurately discover the requested information.
RWhois synthesizes concepts from other, established Internet protocols to
create a more useful way to find resources across the Internet. The RWhois
protocol and architecture derive a great deal of structure from the Domain
Name System (DNS) [RFC 1034] and borrow directory service concepts from
other directory service efforts, primarily [X.500]. The protocol is also
influenced by earlier established Internet protocols, such as the Simple
Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) [RFC 821] for response codes.
TCPSG is just a simple TCP port forwarder designed to distribute a service
like a virtual server. It can be used to protect servers using the port
forwarder to receive requests.
Virtual Distributed Ethernet is a user-mode virtual network (layer
2) infrastructure. It can be used for network simulations, joining
multiple qemu instances together in a shared virtual network, or
tunneling over the Internet. Physical hosts can be joined to the
virtual network by means of the tap(4) driver.
tcpxtract is a tool for extracting files from network traffic based on file
signatures. It supports 26 file formats and you can add new format by editing
its config file. You can extract files from live network or pcap format capture
file.
Kwooty is a .nzb usenet binary downloader for KDE4.
It supports automatic file verifying/repairing
with par2 files and automatic .rar archive extraction.
udpxy is a UDP-to-HTTP multicast traffic relay daemon:
it forwards UDP traffic from a given multicast subscription
to the requesting HTTP client.
Siproxd is a proxy/masquerading daemon for the SIP protocol.
It handles registrations of SIP clients on a private IP network
and performs rewriting of the SIP message bodies to make SIP
connections possible via a masquerading firewall.
It allows SIP clients (like kphone, linphone) to work behind
an IP masquerading firewall or router.
SMM++ is a MUD client with mapping functionality. You can just use
mapping or just mudding or both together.
It is based on itcl , which itself depends on tcl/tk . itcl, tcl/tk
are free and standart programming languages. (If you need further
information, where to get itcl and/or tcl/tk, please drop me a
line.)
The vblade is the virtual EtherDrive (R) blade, a program that makes a
seekable file available over an ethernet local area network (LAN) via
the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) protocol.
The seekable file is typically a block device like /dev/md0 but even
regular files will work. Sparse files can be especially convenient.
When vblade exports the block storage over AoE it becomes a storage
target. Another host on the same LAN can access the storage if it has
a compatible aoe kernel driver.
