Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2008-9331

Name : homestead
Product : Fedora 9
Version : 0.87
Release : 2.fc9
URL :
http://homestead.sourceforge.net/
Summary : 3D real-time network visualiser
Description :
Homestead is a 3D real-time network visualizer, displaying
hosts and packet traffic. Features include support for
multiple sensors, analysis of packets to gather hostnames
and services, configurable layout of subnetworks,
recording/replaying of packet traffic, and the ability
to filter packets by host, protocol or port.
hsen (Homestead Sensor) is a packet capture daemon which
reads and sends packet header information to Homestead,
locally or remotely. hsen also equates hostname to IP
by reading DNS packets (UDP type A class IN standard
query response). The relationship between hsen to Homestead
can be one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-one or many-to-many
(many Homesteads would be on multiple computers on the
same subnet, receiving packet header information
from hsen via broadcast).
