netsniff-ng 0.5.6 released

Netsniff-ng is a toolkit for the analysis and generation of network traffic. The 0.5.6 release is essentially a rewrite from scratch that turns it into a set of tools for traffic capture and analysis, packet generation, route tracing, and more. "flowtop is a top-like connection tracking tool that can run on an end host or router. It is able to present TCP or UDP flows that have been collected by the kernel space netfilter framework. Next to reverse DNS data, connection states and ports, geographical information about the connection end points are supplied."
