A project which will listen on all TCP/UDP ports, and log the first X number of bytes sent to the socket. X is defined as 8192 bytes by default.

TachyonNet

A project which will listen on all TCP/UDP ports, and log the first X number of bytes sent to the socket. X is defined as 8192 bytes by default.

IMPORTANT: A default linux installation will not have
enough file descriptors allocated to open up
65535 * 2 (TCP and UDP) sockets.  Within Ubuntu/Debian,
see /etc/security/limits.conf file.

A structured log format will be created. The default logging directory is the home directory of the user who runs the program, following by ".tachyon_net" and then a date stamp based directory.

Example: If it is July 19, 2016 today, then TachyonNet will create a logging directory as follows:

~/.tachyon_net/20160719/

Within this directory, you will find files representing TCP/IP connections made to this system. The first 8192 bytes (default) of data received is written to this file.

ls ~/.tachyon_net/20160719/
tcp_127.0.0.1_54561__0.0.0.0_8080.log
tcp_127.0.0.1_54562__0.0.0.0_8090.log

The file name itself consists of:

proto_srcip_sport__dstip_dport.log
