pmacct is a set of passive network monitoring tools to measure, account,
classify, aggregate and export IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, suitable to ISP, IXP,
CDN, IP carrier, data-centre and hot-spot enviroments.
Being able to collect flow data through libpcap, NetFlow and sFlow and
optionally augment this by configuring peering with the included BGP
daemon, granularity is fine enough for essential network management
tasks such as billing, graphing network resource usage, analysing live
or historical traffic trends, steering BGP peerings, real-time alerting,
and certain SLA monitoring.
Aggregation, flexible filtering, sampling and renormalization capabilities
are provided to help cope with the large amounts of data produced by high-
speed networks. Using either memory or database tables (MySQL, PostgreSQL,
SQLite) as backend storage, pmacct can easily feed data into external
tools, including RRDtool, GNUPlot, Net-SNMP, MRTG and Cacti.
The default package provides SQLite support, available flavors are:
threads compile with threads, required for BGP integration
or running packet classification in parallel
mysql compile with support for MySQL
postgresql compile with support for PostgreSQL
help from me. The IPv6 features provided by scapy6 are integrated (still
some problems with them, but working well enough) so pkgpath/conflict
markers are set to replace an existing scapy6 installation.

This is a proof-of-concept of a utility to download DNS zone contents
even when AXFR is disabled on the server, assuming DNSSEC is used.
Optionally it can also verify all digital signature RRs within a
zone against the zone key. If you do not know what DNSSEC is, please
refer to: RFC 2535, RFC 4033, RFC 4034, RFC 4035, "dnssec.net" (lots
of DNSSEC information).
The tool supports both the old DNSSEC according to RFC 2535 (i.e.,
KEY/SIG) and the latest DNSSEC version according to RFC 4033 (i.e.,
DNSKEY/RRSIG).
zsync is a file transfer program. It allows you to download a file
from a remote server, where you have a copy of an older version of
the file on your computer already. zsync downloads only the new
parts of the file.
* Client-side rsync - zsync uses the rsync algorithm, but runs it
on the client side, thus avoiding the high server load associated
with rsync.
* Rsync over HTTP - zsync provides transfers that are nearly as
efficient as rsync -z or cvsup, without the need to run a special
server application. All that is needed is an HTTP/1.1-compliant web
server. So it works through firewalls and on shared hosting accounts,
and gives less security worries.
* Handling for compressed files - rsync is ineffective on compressed
files, unless they are compressed with a patched version of gzip.
zsync has special handling for gzipped files, which enables update
transfers of files which are distributed in compressed form.
This class allows you to:
* check if an address is an IPv6 address
* compress/uncompress IPv6 addresses
* check for an IPv4 compatible ending in an IPv6 address
* check the assigned address space of an IPv6 address
* do netmask calculations
A resolver library used to communicate with a name server to perform
DNS queries, zone transfers, dynamic DNS updates, etc.
Creates an object hierarchy from a DNS server response, which allows
you to view all of the information given by the DNS server. It
bypasses the system resolver library and communicates directly with
the server.
This Perl module provides an object-oriented abstraction on top of
IP addresses or IP subnets, that allows for easy manipulations.
The internal representation of all IP objects is in 128 bit IPv6
notation. IPv4 and IPv6 objects may be freely mixed.
