IO::Socket::INET6 is an interface for AF_INET/AF_INET6 domain sockets in Perl.

NetHogs is a small 'net top' tool for Linux. Instead of breaking the traffic down per protocol or per subnet, like most tools do, it groups bandwidth by process.

NetHogs does not rely on a special kernel module to be loaded. If there's suddenly a lot of network traffic, you can fire up NetHogs and immediately see which PID is causing this. This makes it easy to identify programs that have gone wild and are suddenly taking up your bandwidth.

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.

pproxy is an asynchronuous proxy server implemented with Python 3 asyncio. Among the supported protocols are HTTP, SOCKS and SSH, and it can use both TCP and UDP as transport mechanisms.

LibNice is a library that implements the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) standard (RFC 5245 & RFC 8445). It provides a GLib-based library, libnice, as well as GStreamer elements to use it.

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.

ethtool can be used to query and change settings such as speed, auto-negotiation and checksum offload on many network devices, especially Ethernet devices.

Danga::Socket is an abstract base class for objects backed by a socket which provides the basic framework for event-driven asynchronous IO, designed to be fast. Danga::Socket is both a base class for objects, and an event loop.

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.

Net::Bonjour is a set of modules that allow one to discover local services via multicast DNS (mDNS) or enterprise services via traditional DNS. This method of service discovery has been branded as Bonjour by Apple Computer.

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.

Blueman is a Bluetooth management utility using the Bluez D-Bus backend. It is designed to be easy to use for most common Bluetooth tasks.

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.

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. It reduces bandwidth and improves response times by caching and reusing frequently-requested web pages.

RTMPdump is a toolkit for RTMP streams. All forms of RTMP are supported, including rtmp://, rtmpt://, rtmpe://, rtmpte://, and rtmps://.

Tool to send a magic packet to wake another host on the network. This must be enabled on the target host, usually in the BIOS.

This package provides the NBD (Network Block Devices) client and server. It allows you to use remote block devices over a TCP/IP network.

The Network File System (NFS) was developed to allow machines to mount a disk partition on a remote machine as if it were a local disk. It allows for fast, seamless sharing of files across a network.

This package provides the commandline utilities nfs4_getfacl and nfs4_setfacl, which are similar to their POSIX equivalents getfacl and setfacl. They fetch and manipulate access control lists for files and directories on NFSv4 mounts.

Nickle is a programming language based prototyping environment with powerful programming and scripting capabilities. Nickle supports a variety of datatypes, especially arbitrary precision numbers. The programming language vaguely resembles C. Some things in C which do not translate easily are different, some design choices have been made differently, and a very few features are simply missing. Nickle provides the functionality of Unix bc, dc and expr in a different form. It is also an ideal environment for prototyping complex algorithms. Nickle's scripting capabilities make it a replacement for spreadsheets in some applications, and its numeric features complement the limited numeric functionality of text-oriented languages such as AWK and Perl.

Nicotine+ is a graphical client for the Soulseek peer-to-peer file sharing network. It is an attempt to keep Nicotine working with the latest libraries, kill bugs, keep current with the Soulseek protocol, and add some new features that users want and/or need.

Nim (formerly known as Nimrod) is a statically-typed, imperative programming language that tries to give the programmer ultimate power without compromises on runtime efficiency. This means it focuses on compile-time mechanisms in all their various forms.

Ninja is a small build system with a focus on speed. It differs from other build systems in two major respects: it is designed to have its input files generated by a higher-level build system, and it is designed to run builds as fast as possible.
