Windows Networking Tools

I have found out about a few really neat network tools, and if you’re into networking as I have become – you’ll find these invaluable.

WinPcap – installs the essential library files to run the following programs. It’s a network packet capture and filtering engine.

WinDump – download this and place it in your system32 folder of the windows folder, then hit up the command prompt and type windump [-options] where you replace [options] with the proper ones.

Wireshark- previously known as ethereal, this is a powerful and fully featured network protocol analyzer/sniffer. Great for troubleshooting network issues.
