Darkstat is a network traffic analyzer. It's basically a packet sniffer which runs as a background process on a cable/DSL router and gathers all sorts of useless but interesting statistics.

Darkstat is no longer under active development or maintainership.

I no longer have the time to do it. And I no longer have a need for it. darkstat was originally written because I had very specific requirements for a network link monitor. I now use traf.

I started work on darkstat 3 a long time ago, got a fair bit of work done on it, then stalled for ages as other things took priority. If someone else wants to take over, mail me about it. I considered putting up a "work in progress" tarball on this page.

Compatibility:

Darkstat works fine for me under Gentoo Linux and FreeBSD STABLE. It sort-of works on OpenBSD and NetBSD.

What's New in This Release:

Various build fixes were made. darkstat now builds correctly against older versions of libpcap, and builds cleanly on NetBSD and AIX.

Minor improvements were made to the Web interface.

Writes to the BPF socket are now denied. DNS resolution is less aggressive, and darkstat can now decode traffic on ippp0 interfaces.
