Abstract

We present the design and implementation of a framework for inspection, visualization, and modification of tcpdump packet trace files. The system is modularized into components for distinct application purposes, readily extensible, accessible through programmatic and graphical interfaces, and capable of handling trace files of arbitrary size and content. We include experiences of using the system in several real-world scenarios.
