3 * netsniff-ng has been completely rewritten
5 * New, flexible packet dissector that allows an easy integration of new
7 * New tool 'ifpps' which displays kernel network statistics in a top-like
8 manner, support for wifi
9 * New tool 'trafgen' which is a network packet generator that exploits the
10 kernels zero-copy TX_RING
12 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, xx.xx.2011
16 * Most of the old legacy stuff has been cleaned up, rewritten
17 * Added more packet printing options
19 * Added TX_RING pcap replay
20 * Rewrote Manpage, added Berkeley Packet Filter section, benchmarks
21 * Removed server version
22 * Added option for ring size
23 * Added regular expresssion filtering
25 * First official version of which we think that it is quite useful ;-)
27 + Fixed rx_ring.h: The kernel might set other flags then TP_STATUS_USER
28 when a packet is ready.

34 * Packet look-ahead within receive ring traversal method
37 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, 14.02.2010
41 * Security fix in netsniff-ng.c
43 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, 01.01.2010
45 netsniff-ng 0.5.4.0 - 'happy GNU year edition'
48 * Added high-resolution timer
49 * Fixed small bugs / mem-leaks
50 * Major code refactorings
51 * Added SIGHUP ignorance, so for instance netsniff-ng keeps alive on
53 * Added pid output during start
54 * Better packet visualization
56 * Setting process affinity to specific CPU on demand (via Param). This can
57 be useful for a patched init proc, so that on demand netsniff-ng can be
58 the only process for a single CPU
59 * -s option can now be switched on and off during runtime via SIGUSR2
60 * Option for running netsniff-ng in non-blocking mode
62 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, 31.12.2009
66 * Added Makefile (yey!)
69 * Third (crappy) release
71 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, 06.12.2009
75 * Minor fixes, which I cannot remember anymore
76 * Second (crappy) release
78 -- Daniel Borkmann, Emmanuel Roullit, 06.09.2009
82 * First (crappy) release ;-)
