NNG project is a rewrite of the scalability protocols library known as libnanomsg, and adds significant new capabilities, while retaining compatibility with the original. It is a lightweight, broker-less library, offering a simple API to solve common recurring messaging problems, such as publish/subscribe, RPC-style request/reply, or service discovery.

NZBGet is a binary newsgrabber, which downloads files from Usenet based on information given in nzb files. NZBGet can be used in standalone and in server/client modes. In standalone mode, you pass NZBGet nzb files as command-line parameters and it downloads them and exits. NZBGet also contains a Web interface. Its server can be controlled through remote procedure calls (RPCs).

knockd is a port-knock daemon. It listens to all traffic on an ethernet or PPP interface, looking for special "knock" sequences of port-hits (UDP/TCP packets sent to a server port). This port need not be open, since knockd listens at the link-layer level.

Hashcash is a proof-of-work algorithm, which has been used as a denial-of-service countermeasure technique in a number of systems.

A hashcash stamp constitutes a proof-of-work which takes a parametrizable amount of work to compute for the sender. The recipient can verify received hashcash stamps efficiently.

This package contains a command-line tool for computing and verifying hashcash stamps.

lcsync is a tool to sync files over IPv6 multicast or the local filesystem. It splits the file into blocks, hashes them, and compares them in order to efficiently transfer a minimal amount of data.

The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is an industry standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary Link-Layer protocols such as EDP or CDP. The goal of LLDP is to provide an inter-vendor compatible mechanism to deliver Link-Layer notifications to adjacent network devices. lldpd is an implementation of LLDP. It also supports some proprietary protocols.

Command line interface for testing internet bandwidth using speedtest.net.

Reaver performs a brute force attack against an access point's Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) PIN. Once the PIN is found, the WPA passphrase can be recovered and the AP's wireless settings can be reconfigured.

This program helps automate the creation and maintenance of BGP routing filters used for peering through Internet exchanges.

It generates prefix lists, (extended) access lists, policy-statement terms, and AS paths from data in the IRR, including the RADB operated by the Merit Network at the University of Michigan.

The filters can be aggregated and exported in the most common formats.

Proxychains-ng is a preloader which hooks calls to sockets in dynamically linked programs and redirects them through one or more SOCKS or HTTP proxies.

Pixiewps implements the pixie-dust attack to brute force the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) PIN by exploiting the low or non-existing entropy of some access points.

Net::DNS::Resolver::Programmable is a programmable DNS resolver for offline emulation of DNS.

This module provides several IP address validation subroutines that both validate and untaint their input. This includes both basic validation (is_ipv4() and is_ipv6()) and special cases like checking whether an address belongs to a specific network or whether an address is public or private (reserved).

Libproxy handles the details of HTTP/HTTPS proxy configuration for applications across all scenarios. Applications using libproxy only have to specify which proxy to use.

FRRouting (FRR) is an IP routing protocol suite which includes protocol daemons for BGP, IS-IS, LDP, OSPF, PIM, and RIP.

Nebula is a peer-to-peer networking tool based on the Noise Protocol Framework. It is not a fully decentralized network, but instead uses central discovery nodes and a certificate authority to facilitate direct, encrypted peer-to-peer connections from behind most firewalls and NAT layers.

GNU MAC Changer is a utility for viewing and changing MAC addresses of networking devices. New addresses may be set explicitly or randomly. They can include MAC addresses of the same or other hardware vendors or, more generally, MAC addresses of the same category of hardware.

Quagga is a routing software suite, providing implementations of OSPFv2, OSPFv3, RIP v1 and v2, RIPng and BGP-4 for Unix platforms.

The Quagga architecture consists of a core daemon, zebra, which acts as an abstraction layer to the underlying Unix kernel and presents the Zserv API over a Unix or TCP stream to Quagga clients. It is these Zserv clients which typically implement a routing protocol and communicate routing updates to the zebra daemon.

The lksctp-tools project provides a user-space library for SCTP (libsctp) and C language header files (netinet/sctp.h) for accessing SCTP-specific APIs not provided by the standard sockets. It also includes some SCTP-related helper utilities.

iwd is a wireless daemon for Linux that aims to replace WPA Supplicant. It optimizes resource utilization by not depending on any external libraries and instead utilizing features provided by the Linux kernel to the maximum extent possible.

Aircrack-ng is a complete suite of tools to assess WiFi network security. It focuses on different areas of WiFi security: monitoring, attacking, testing, and cracking. All tools are command-line driven, which allows for heavy scripting.

This package provides a wireless network and device detector, sniffer, wardriving tool, and WIDS (wireless intrusion detection) framework. Kismet works with Wi-Fi interfaces, Bluetooth interfaces, some SDR (software defined radio) hardware like the RTLSDR, and other specialized capture hardware

Miredo is an implementation (client, relay, server) of the Teredo specification, which provides IPv6 Internet connectivity to IPv6 enabled hosts residing in IPv4-only networks, even when they are behind a NAT device.
