-----Original Message----- From: Dave Korn ----Original Message----From: Alex KrycekÄîáðûé âå÷åð...looking for an in-line coax monitoringdevice that willgive me the ability to monitor/capture and decode all traffic that pass by - any suggestions on how to create one, purchase one, sites that sell them or tell you how to build one....? Ñïàñèáî - -The RatThe device you are looking for does exist. It's called a "cable modem". You can get them from ISPs.
Except that you need a cable modem that's set up to put go into promiscuous mode, and not transmit anything. I believe this may be doable with SNMP, but you would have to know the community strings used by the ISP. The modems the ISPs ship only pass inward traffic destined for their own addresses. I'm not sure if they announce their presence, if the computer behind them is silent - that might take some tweaking also. What Alex described looked more like a passive tap, that won't emit any signals. -- End of sensible content.
