Packet Sniffer is a method of tapping each packet as it flows across the network. It is a technique in which a user sniffs data belonging to other users of the network. It is effective on both switched networks and non-switched networks. Packet Sniffer can operate as an administrative tool or for malicious purposes. It depends on the user's intent. This Paper discusses how sniffing can be done in the case of the hub and switched network, various packet sniffer methods and different methods that AntiSniff uses to detect these sniffing programs are also discussed. A packet sniffer is a technique for monitoring network traffic. In LANs, a packet sniffer and remote network monitoring are well-known techniques used by network administrators to monitor LAN behavior and diagnose trouble.

“…In all these cases, knowing the sources of the attacks is the first step towards taking appropriate action in achieving correct protection. A good way of achieving correct protection is by using a trusted packet sniffer such as Wireshark, formerly known as Ethereal, whose prime objective is networking troubleshooting, analysis, and networking research [6].…”

This paper was designed to provide Intranet traffic monitoring by sniffing the packets at the local Area Network (LAN) server end to provide security and control. It was implemented using five computer systems configured with static Internet Protocol (IP) addresses used in monitoring the IP traffic on the network by capturing and analyzing live packets from various sources and destinations in the network. The LAN was deployed on windows 8 with a D-link 16-port switch, category 6 Ethernet cable and other LAN devices. The IP traffics were captured and analyzed using Wireshark Version 2.0.3. Four network instructions were used in the analysis of the IP traffic and the results displayed the IP and Media Access Control (MAC) address sources and destinations of the frames, Ethernet, IP addresses, User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The outcome can aid network administrators to control Intranet access and provide security.

PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) is a network protocol used in the implementation of Virtual Private Networks (VPN). PPTP uses a client-server design that operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model. Network administrators require the existence of performance testing Point to point protocol and VPN network topology; this can be done with the result of simulation of computer networks. This research will discuss about the level of performance and security of PPTP to sniffing in VPN network. Simulations were performed with an average file packet delivery scenario of 500 MB. Graphical Network Simulator-3 (GNS3) is a network software emulator. This allows a combination of virtual and real devices, used to simulate complex networks. The simulation will be done using a VPN network and not using VPN by using GNS3 network simulation tool. Measurement of performance and security analysis is obtained by using Wireshark. The simulation results of the test will produce data to be used in the analysis process. PPTP performance analysis is performed in testing data transfer using FTP protocol when using the VPN network and not using VPN network. Performance parameters measured using Wireshark include throughput and delay. Testing is done by transferring data from the FTP protocol using a VPN network and not using a VPN network. The data transfer test results will get the parameters of output, delay, and data level of confidentiality. The best throughput values give results, data transfers that not use VPN are higher than using a VPN with an average yield of 153 KB and a delay in the network that does not use a VPN that is 0.0032 MS. Data transmission process from both methods shows the security of the FTP protocol, this concludes the security of the PPTP VPN protocol.
