What is Packet Sniffing?

In this video, we'll explore the basics of packet sniffing, a technique used to intercept and analyze network traffic. Packet sniffing allows you to capture data packets as they travel across a network and examine their contents. We'll discuss the different types of data that can be captured, including web pages, emails, and instant messages, and how this information can be used to gain insight into network performance and security. We'll also provide an overview of the tools and techniques used for packet sniffing, including how to choose the right tool for your needs and how to capture packets in different network environments.

"Transmission Control Protocol, together with Internet Protocol, forms the basis of the TCP/IP 4-layer model. These layers are conceptual frameworks that define how data should be transmitted over a network to ensure stable connections. Each layer in the model serves a different purpose. For instance, the **Network Access Layer** (the first layer) involves the physical aspects of network connections, such as the hardware responsible for data transmission. Please note, I am still under training, and the information in this comment may require further refinement or additional details."

thank you very much - that was a great overview

I do actually want to know more about wire shark.

I had a good understanding about packet sniffing and i chose that as my project for tomorrows presentation so can you send me the source code for packet sniffer
