RE: TCP/UDP Data Streams - Packet Reassembly

["Joe Elliott" <joe () inetd com>]

Hello,
        Our commercial product ContExt (Content Extractor) will create images/docs
from a raw packet stream 7x24 in real-time and handle frags, out of sequence
packets etc. It creates web reports of the content and allows searches and
tracking of addresses. Its a hardware/software solution packaged as a
device. It handles GIG ethernet and 20,000+ concurrent connections.

It supports JPEG/GIF/PNG/Word/Excel/MP3/PDF/PS/POP3/MBOX/PPT/ZIP etc etc
formats that you can view from a web page.

See http://www.inetd.com for details. It supports PCAP recordings as well as
live traffic.

Its not free, so maybe thats no use to you.

Joe.

There's more to it than just "re-assembling TCP/UDP data streams"; as
you said "word attachment", it sounds as if you're talking about e-mail,
in which case, for example, reassembling a TCP data stream for an SMTP
session would give you the SMTP traffic - but you'd have to extract the
stuff sent with the "DATA" command, and then de-MIMEify it to extract
the attachments.

Similarly, for a document downloaded with HTTP, reassembly would give
you only the HTTP traffic; you'd have to extract the document from that.
