Working Modes

Traffic Capture - OSI Layer 2 - Ethernet

Traffic Capture is the process of monitoring or analyzing data transmission in a network.

The term “OSI Layer 2 - Ethernet” refers to this capture process occurring at the layer where data is transmitted over Ethernet. In other words, data packets involving MAC address-based communication and Ethernet protocols are being analyzed.

Tunneling OSI Layer 3 - IPv4 & IPv6

The term Tunneling OSI Layer 3 - IPv4 & IPv6 refers to the process of securely transporting data from one layer to another over IP addressing systems (IPv4 and IPv6).

This process ensures the secure transmission of data across different networks. Tunneling is used to hide, encrypt, and seamlessly transfer data between networks.

Tunneling OSI Layer 3 - Working Behind NAT

Tunneling OSI Layer 3 - Working Behind NAT refers to a technique that performs tunneling in networks using Network Address Translation (NAT) to securely transmit data.

This topic is particularly concerned with how tunneling protocols operate during the IP address translation process done by NAT devices (typically routers). These techniques ensure secure data transmission and network interconnection.
