Sniffer application host side

This a Unix application to link between the serial port having the sensor node connected and Wireshark or tcpdump. Enclosed is a modified wsbridge (See copyright i file) code to use the format used by sensniff.

You can also use sensniff which is a Python script. Author of senssniff is George Oikonomou (oikonomou@users.sf.net)

See: https://github.com/g-oikonomou/sensniff

Function

The mote captures WSN data and formats according sensniff format sends over the serial line. The data is binary. The wsbridge reads reads serial line (typically /dev/ttyUSB) on Linux systems decodes the sensnaiff and create timestamp and adds the the PCAP farming and writes the result to a FIFO or named pipe. /tmp/wireshark or /tmp/sensniff.

Bulld

Just use the Makefile. Put binary for convince in your path.

Usage

• wsbridge /dev/ttYUSB
• wireshart -k -i /tmp/wireshark

Default serial port speed

38400 bps
