mediastreamer2 is a GPL licensed library to make audio and video real-time streaming and processing.
Written in pure C, it is based upon the oRTP library.
oRTP is a LGPL licensed C library implementing the RTP protocol (rfc1889).
This project contains various time synchronization tools. While building is enabled for other distributions then Tumbleweed/Factory, primary purpose of this project is development, not backporting for older releases. Do not add this project repositories to your systems unless you know what you are doing and are willing to fix issues you encounter.
Chrony is an implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). It can
synchronize the system clock with NTP servers, reference clocks (e.g. a
GPS receiver), and manual input using wristwatch and keyboard. It can
also operate as an NTPv4 (RFC 5905) server and peer to provide a time
service to other computers in the network.
Chrony consists of two programs: chronyd and chronyc.
Chronyd is a daemon which runs in the background on the system. It
obtains measurements of the system clock’s offset relative to time
servers on other systems via the network and adjusts the system time
accordingly. For isolated systems, the user can periodically enter the
correct time by hand (using chronyc). In either case, chronyd
determines the rate at which the computer gains or loses time, and
compensates for this. Chronyd can act as either a client or a server.
Chronyc provides a user interface to chronyd for monitoring its
performance and configuring various settings. It can do so while
running on the same computer as the chronyd instance it is controlling
or a different computer.
clknetsim is a tool designed to test programs which synchronize the system
clock, either over network or from a hardware reference clock. It simulates
a system or a number of systems connected to each other in a network and
the tested programs discipline the simulated system clocks. It can be used
to quickly test how well the programs control the system clocks in various
conditions or to test the network protocols.
nqptp is a daemon that monitors timing data from any PTP clocks – up to 64 – it
sees on ports 319 and 320. It maintains records for each clock, identified by
Clock ID and IP.
It is a companion application to Shairport Sync and provides timing information
for AirPlay 2 operation.
The PTP daemon (PTPd) implements the Precision Time protocol (PTP) as
defined by the IEEE 1588 standard. PTP was developed to provide very
precise time coordination of LAN connected computers.
PTPd is a complete implementation of the IEEE 1588 specification for a
standard (non-boundary) clock. PTPd has been tested with and is known
to work properly with other IEEE 1588 implementations. The source code
for PTPd is freely available under a BSD-style license. Thanks to
contributions from users, PTPd is becoming an increasingly portable,
interoperable, and stable IEEE 1588 implementation.
PTPd can run on most 32-bit little- or big-endian processors. It does
not require an FPU, so it is great for embedded processors. PTPd
currently runs on Linux, uClinux, FreeBSD, and NetBSD. It should also
be easy to port to other platforms.
PTPd is free. Everyone is invited to use and contribute to PTPd.
aria2 is a utility for downloading files. It has a segmented
downloading engine in its core. It can download one file from
multiple URLs or multiple connections from one URL. This can be used
to speed up downloads with certain networks. The engine in was
implemented in a single-thread model.
aria2 currently supports HTTP, FTP, and BitTorrent.
libpsl is a C library to handle the Public Suffix List. A "public suffix" is a
domain name under which Internet users can directly register own names.
HTTP user agents can use it to avoid privacy-leaking "supercookies" and "super
domain" certificates. It is also use do highlight domain parts in a user interface
and sorting domain lists by site.
This implementation provides LLDP sending and reception, supports VLAN
and includes an SNMP subagent that can interface to an SNMP agent
through AgentX protocol.
LLDP is an industry standard protocol designed to supplant proprietary
Link-Layer protocols such as Extreme EDP (Extreme Discovery Protocol)
and CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol). The goal of LLDP is to provide an
inter-vendor compatible mechanism to deliver Link-Layer notifications
to adjacent network devices.
This daemon is also able to deal with CDP, FDP, SONMP and EDP
protocol. It also handles LLDP-MED extension.
This package contains nbd-server. It is the server backend for the nbd
network block device driver that's in the Linux kernel.
nbd can be used to have a filesystem stored on another machine. It does
provide a block device, not a file system; so unless you put a
clustering filesystem on top of it, you can't access it simultaneously
from more than one client. Use NFS or a real cluster FS (such as
ocfs2) if you want to do this. nbd-server can export a file (which may
contain a filesystem image) or a partition. Swapping over nbd is
possible as well, though it's said not to be safe against OOM and
should not be used for that case. nbd-server also has a copy-on-write
mode where changes are saved to a separate file and thrown away when
the connection closes.
The package also contains the nbd-client tools, which you need to
configure the nbd devices on the client side.
Netdiscover is an active/passive address reconnaissance tool, mainly developed
for those wireless networks without dhcp server, when you are wardriving. It
can be also used on hub/switched networks.
Built on top of libnet and libpcap, it can passively detect online hosts, or
search for them, by actively sending arp requests, it can also be used to
inspect your network arp traffic, and find network addresses using auto scan
mode, which will scan for common local networks.
This systems administrator, tuner, benchmark tool gives you a huge amount of
important performance information in one go. It can output the data in two ways
1. On screen (console, telnet, VNC, putty or X Windows) using curses for low
CPU impact which is updated once every two seconds. You hit single characters
on you keyboard to enable/disable the various sorts of data.
* You can display the CPU, memory, network, disks (mini graphs or numbers),
file systems, NFS, top processes, resources (Linux version & processors)
and on Power micro-partition information.
2. Save the data to a comma separated file for analysis and longer term data
capture.
* Use this together with nmon Analyser Excel 2000 spreadsheet, which loads
the nmon output file and automatically creates dozens of graphs ready for
you to study or write performance reports.
* Filter this data, add it to a rrd database (using an excellent freely
available utility called rrdtool). This graphs the data to .gif or .png
files plus generates the webpage .html file and you can then put the
graphs directly on a website automatically on AIX with no need of a
Windows based machine.
* Directly put the data into a rrd database or other database for your own
analysis
The Public Suffix List is a cross-vendor initiative to provide
an accurate list of domain name suffixes, maintained by the hard work
of Mozilla volunteers and by submissions from registries.
Software using the Public Suffix List will be able to determine where
cookies may and may not be set, protecting the user from being
tracked across sites.
RHash (Recurcive Hasher) is a console utility for computing and
verifying magnet links and hash sums of files.
It supports CRC32, MD4, MD5, SHA1/SHA2, Tiger, DC++ TTH, BitTorrent
BTIH, AICH, eDonkey hash, GOST R 34.11-94, RIPEMD-160, HAS-160, EDON-R,
Whirlpool and Snefru hash algorithms. Hash sums are used to ensure and
verify integrity of large volumes of data for a long-term storing or
transferring.
Program features:
* Calculation of Magnet links and EDonkey 2000 links.
* Output in a predefined (SFV, BSD-like) or a user-defined format.
* Updating crc files (adding hash sums of files missing in the crc
file).
* Ability to process directories recursively.
Tcpreplay is a suite of utilities for editing and replaying
previously captured network traffic. It was originally designed to
replay malicious traffic patterns to Intrusion Detection/Prevention
Systems, and is meanwhile capable of replaying to web servers. It
supports switches, routers and IP Flow/NetFlow appliances.
