👉 The Buffer project is an open-source software suite designed to provide a comprehensive solution for managing and processing network traffic, particularly in environments where data integrity and performance are critical. Buffer offers a suite of tools including a packet capture and analysis tool (tcpdump), a protocol analyzer (Wireshark), and a network performance monitor (Netstat). These tools help network administrators and developers diagnose issues, optimize network performance, and secure network communications by providing detailed insights into network traffic patterns and potential vulnerabilities. Buffer's modular architecture allows users to customize and extend its capabilities to meet specific needs, making it a versatile and powerful tool for network management.
