How about this use case: I have a ChromeCast on my home network, but I want sandbox/log its traffic. I would want to write some logic to ignore video data, because that's big. But I want to see the metadata and which servers it's talking to. I want to see when it's auto-updating itself with new binaries and record them.
Is that a good use case for Snabb Switch, or is there is an easier way to accomplish what I want?
- lukego 13y agoThat sounds pretty reasonable to me. If you can express how you want to filter with a fancy pcap-filter expression the tcpdump is the easy answer. Otherwise you might want to code it up in Lua with snabbswitch. Here is our basic trace store/replay library today: https://github.com/SnabbCo/snabbswitch/blob/master/src/lib/pcap/pcap.lua https://github.com/SnabbCo/snabbswitch/blob/master/src/lib/p...
- chubot 13y agoOK and I forgot to say I might want to deny some traffic... like disable auto updates but still allow it to contact other servers to play video. AFAIK tcpdump doesn't let you do that. Thanks for the very cool project! I will have to learn more about it.
