User visible features: ---------------------- * change user and drop privileges. Perhaps use also capabilities. * identify nodes from protocol window. It could be done by maintaining a node tree for every global protocol. * show all node stats in node window * find a way to record both ports of a link/connection * revise preferences dialog; allow filtering out netbios names * Ability to set per node preferences. Like setting an hour long averaging time only for the router. * Ability to manually place nodes. It's dependent on the above. Once is done you will be able to open and save your own diagrams. * Make OSI level decoding consistent even with encapsulation. Multiple protocols should be shown comma separated at the proper level, instead of being incorrectly bumped up. Example: "ETHII, LLC-SNAP -> IP", instead of "ETHII -> LLC-SNAP -> IP". Issues in the source code ------------------------- * rewrite names handling. Do only packet extraction at capture time, name resolution at display time and only for the chosen address. * use glib datastructs everywhere, instead of a mix of glib and in-house. * refactor stop handling; separate clearing data from updating. * Why am I using a global "interface" and a second "device" in capture.c? Check that I can just use interface. * Use a GArray instead of a fixed array for the protocols stack.
