PacketLens
Professional network packet analysis tool with real-time capture, protocol decoding, and advanced filtering
Project Overview
PacketLens is a professional-grade network packet analyzer built with Java and JavaFX, offering real-time packet capture and deep protocol analysis. Leveraging Pcap4J library for low-level packet capture, it provides detailed protocol decoding for TCP/IP, UDP, HTTP, DNS, and more. The intuitive JavaFX interface displays packets in real-time with color-coded protocol identification, hexadecimal dumps, and powerful filtering capabilities similar to Wireshark.
