OpenWrt
A Linux operating system targeting embedded devices
OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned. -

FlowViewer
FlowViewer is a web-based netflow data analysis tool.
FlowViewer provides a convenient web-based user interface to Mark Fullmer’s flow-tools suite and CMU's netflow data capture/analyzer, SiLK. The inclusion of the underlying SiLK tool set enables FlowViewer users to continue to use the tool with the newer IPFIX netflow data protocol, which includes support for IPv6 and Cisco's v9 and FNF netflow. FlowViewer has been developed for NASA’s Earth Sciences Data and Information System (ESDIS) networks, and credit goes to NASA for their usual outstanding support of innovation. The FlowViewer tools provide additional graphing and tracking features by utilizing open source software including Thomas Boutrell’s gd, Lincoln Stein's GD, Martien Verbruggen's GD::Graph, and Tobias Oetiker’s RRDtool. FlowViewer v4.6 fixes non-UTC local time environments for FlowViewer and FlowGrapher, and $no_devices_or_exporters FlowMonitor_Collector problem. **Note: SiLK must be v3.8.0 or later. Version 3.9 handles sFlow data. -

RCDP - Network Mapper
Recursive mapping/discovery of network devices via CDP/OSPF
CLI based, recursive mapping/discovery of network devices via SNMP(CDP/OSPF/BGP MIBs). SNMP(LLDP MIBs), telnet, and SSH are to follow, along with multi-vendor support (right now only supports cisco devices). Requires Perl and Net::SNMP, Net::SSH, and Net::Telnet modules. -

steganoroute
Send steganographed text messages to mtr with fake hops in the network
Steganoroute is a tool to send steganographed text messages to another computer over the network. The receiver must make a traceroute to the sender using the mtr program (and pressing 'd' once to switch the display mode to the continuous graph). This tool, the sender, creates several fake hops and makes them answer the ICMP packets (or not) to write the letters one by one on the mtr client screen. -

BGP History logger
BGPHist stores MP-BGP updates activity and history into a database.
BGPHist is a tool that able to get MP-BGP updates, decode it, and write to the backend storage for logging and monitoring purposes. It support not only internet routes, but also these address families: 1. ipv4 multicast 2. ipv4 labeled unicast 3. vpnv4 unicast 4. ipv6 unicast 5. ipv6 labeled unicast 6. vpnv6 unicast 7. l2vpn vpls-vpws 8. ipv4 mvpn Backend storages supported - text output, MySQL database and Oracle database. For MySql backend there is also a simple PHP frontend. Possible usages: 1. Monitor and log ISP's customers activity for Internet and VPNs. 2. Use as a passive BGP looking glass for all possible VPNs and Internet. 3. Backend for some external monitoring and accounting system. BGPHist should be connected to the BGP route reflector as a client to get all routing updates. It does not have code to generate BGP update messages, it's only a listener. -

AcoPath for Java
Ant Colony Optimization algorithm for the shortest path problem.
The shortest path problem is solved by many methods. Heuristics offer lower complexity in expense of accuracy. There are many use cases where the lower accuracy is acceptable in return of lower consumption of computing resources. The basic idea of the Ant System is that virtual ants are exploited for finding paths with a specific property, e.g., short distance between physical nodes, in the same way nature guides physical ants. -

J-X-Way UNI-TE
Java library for X-Way and/or UNI-TE communication.
PROJECT HAS MOVED HERE: https://github.com/Elektordi/x-way-uni-te X-Way and UNI-TE (also used in Unitelway) are communication protocols for old Schneider Electrics PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), formerly "Modicon Télémécanique". The aim of this open-source project is to create a Java library to send and receive such data, because there is actually no open-source project at all in this field. Keep in mind that those protocols are old and not maintained anymore by any company, but still used in many old PLCs installations. -
