Packet Peeper

(click logo to download)

Packet Peeper is a free network protocol analyzer (or 'packet sniffer') for Mac OS X. Its features include:

  • TCP stream reassembly.
  • Privilege separation.
  • Simultaneous capture sessions.
  • Filters, which may be defined at any time. Packet Peeper uses the same syntax as tcpdump and Wireshark (or any other program that uses the libpcap library). For documentation see the `expression' section of the tcpdump manual page.
  • Python plugins.
  • Support for pcap/tcpdump capture files.
  • Universal binary.

    The latest version of Packet Peeper (and source code) can be downloaded here.
