Sniffnet is a simple yet robust packet sniffer developed with the aim to let people have a glance into their network traffic without pain,
+in a straightforward and comprehensible way
+
-## Install
+## Install & Run
-The application binary can be installed with ```cargo install sniffnet```
+If you have [Rust installed](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) on your machine, the application binary can be installed with ```cargo install sniffnet```
-The application can then be run using ```sniffnet [OPTIONS]```
+Otherwise, you can install Sniffnet through the installers available in the [latest release](https://github.com/GyulyVGC/sniffnet/releases)

-## Graphical report
+## Features
-
-
- See details
+- choose a network adapter to inspect
+- select filters to apply to the observed traffic:
+ * IP version
+ * transport protocol
+ * application protocol
+- view real-time charts about traffic intensity (bytes and packets per second, incoming and outgoing)
+- view overall statistics about the filtered traffic
+- view most relevant connections (most recent, most packets, most bytes)
+- save textual report with detailed information for each connection:
+ * source and destination IP addresses
+ * source and destination ports
+ * carried protocols
+ * amount of exchanged packets and bytes
+ * initial and final timestamp of information exchange

-The graphical report consists of a svg file, constantly updated while Sniffnet is running.
-It is suggested to open this file with a web browser, in order to be able to comfortably refresh it.
-
-It reports the amount of sent (outgoing) and received (incoming) bits and packets per second.
-
-
-
-Note that the number of bits and packets in the graph refers to one single second even if the update frequency is different.
-
-The default update frequency is set to 5 seconds, but you can change it launching the application with the ```-i``` option.
-Note that the default interval of 5 seconds is more suitable if the network traffic is constant and steady (e.g., large file download);
-in case of intermittent traffic, you can consider using a lower time interval.

-## Textual reports

-
- See details
-
-### statistics.txt
-
-This file contains details and statistics about the sniffing process.
-
-
- 
-
-
-First, it specifies the name of the network adapter analyzed.
-
-Then there is a detail about the initial timestamp of the sniffing process and the last timestamp in which the report was updated.
-
-It also describes the status of the possible filters applicable by the user through the command line: IP address version, transport layer protocol, port minimum and maximum number, and application layer protocol.
-
-Finally, it reports some statistics about the observed traffic: the number of [address:port] pairs considered, the total number
-of sniffed packets, the number (and percentage) of packets selected according to the active filters and a list of the
-observed application layer protocols with the respective packets count.
-
-
-### report.txt
-
-This file contains a detailed analysis of the packets stream for each [address:port] pair.
-
-This analysis results in a table in which each row represents an [address:port] pair with the relative statistics.
-
-
- 
-
-
-For each [address:port] pair it is reported the amount of exchanged data measured in number of packets and in number of bytes between the source and the destination.
-
-For each [address:port] pair are reported the first and the last timestamp in which a packet was transmitted between that [address:port] pair.
-
-Level 4 and level 7 carried protocols are also described (respectively transport layer and application layer protocols);
-please note that application level protocols are just inferred from the transport port numbers.
