Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

How do remote interfaces work in wireshark?
As long as your custom service used the rpcap protocol I'd expect it to be possible. You may find this GitHub page informative, since it includes some rpcap source code and one of the main Wireshark developers appears to be a contributor there.

How to reverse engineer a JSON API on a single page application
mitmproxy can be used to find the HTTP request with the needed data in addition browser dev tools. At some point, I'll explore tcpdump and wireshark to reverse engineer websites for web scraping and share the learnings with you.

Chibicc – A Small C Compiler
(Of course, this consideration should be appropriately downweighted by YAGNI, as threading memory management through prototype or internal utility code can by itself easily force it into very non-prototype amounts of effort.)

Question re C interop, type, for use with std.mem
I am working with libpcap, a library that parses packets captured from tcpdump, which I have cIncluded from Zig.

Implement DevSecOps to Secure your CI/CD pipeline
Nmap and Wireshark, tcpdump tools can be used to scan networks and packets.

Working on Net+, Need Some Direction
Also definitely start looking at tcpdump and wireshark. These are invaluable tools for the non-network engineer that is perhaps a sysadmin or analyst to use for network troubleshooting.

Modding
For future reference, libpcap is a library that Wireshark and many other network analysis tools use to record network traffic. It has its own file format that it can use to save the recorded network traffic to disk.

Linux Debugging
A lot is covered here and here, sar might be useful, getfacl and tcpdump and probably hundred more tools I am not even aware of. The easiest to learn those is to have a problem and identify and solve it with those tools, but to do that you need to know roughly what those tools can do.

Gain Visibility into Istio mTLS Traffic with Mizu
For example, gopacket uses libpcap by default for capturing the traffic. Libpcap doesn't support network namespaces and we can't ask it to listen to traffic on a different namespace. However, we can change the network namespace of the calling thread and then start libpcap to see the traffic on a different namespace.

PHP-FPM 8.2 on OpenBSD 7.3
The PHP core package is offered as pre-compiled binary via Ports packages system. In addition, important softwares such as extensions, Composer and PECL libraries are available. So are frameworks such as NextCloud and Zabbix.

Is anyone using Grafana for your network monitoring?
Prometheus is a great way to go, however you need to invest time in writing all the alerts. This was a daunting task for us, because we have too many vendors and device types.. we instead went with zabbix, which is a free open source platform similar to Orion. Quite easy to setup. All the device templates for monitoring alerting are provided by the community. There is a grafana plugin which integrates with Zabbix, so you can build beautiful dashboards in grafana while using the polling and alerting logic in zabbix. You can also use grafana OnCall via a zabbix integration. Phase1: You could move to zabbix. Realize cost savings without investing time. Phase2: learn and work on moving things to Prometheus slowly. edit: added links and some rewording

Ascertaining how much traffic backups generate
Setup Zabbix (https://www.zabbix.com/) and use SNMP (search for a template for your switches, chances are someone has created one) to pull throughput data from the switchport your proxies are connected to. This will graph them for you on a continual basis, you can then setup some triggers (alerts) that will flag over-utilization (say >80Mbps) for you, can generate an email or SMS alert based on that or just see it in the dashboard.

Any good and free tool to test network connection health? (see description for details)
Look at setting up Zabbix (https://www.zabbix.com/) you can then do ping and latency tests to key hosts/endpoints and get packet loss and other variables in a graphical format. Also will allow you to setup monitoring to alert when there are known issues.

Uptime site monitor - notification solutions for home while sleeping
Check out Zabbix. Similar to something like PRTG (I see was already mentioned) but it is a free solution. Only cost is setup time and infrastructure.

Self hosted log paraer
now if its more metric data you are using and want to do APM, prometheus is your man https://prometheus.io/, want to make prometheus your full time job? deploy cortex https://cortexmetrics.io/, honorable mention in the metrics space, Zabbix, https://www.zabbix.com/ I've seen use cases of zabbix going way beyond its intended use its a fantastic tool

Mixed Vendor Network Monitoring and Management
- NMS / NPM: NetXMS, Zabbix, LibreNMS, PRTG - NCM, updates, automation: Unimus - IaC / automation: Ansible - DCIM / IPAM: NetBox - IPAM / DDI: Infoblox
What are some alternatives?
npcap - Nmap Project's Windows packet capture and transmission library
LibreNMS - Community-based GPL-licensed network monitoring system
tcpdump - the TCPdump network dissector
uptime-kuma - A fancy self-hosted monitoring tool
gopacket - Provides packet processing capabilities for Go
Netdata - The open-source observability platform everyone needs
ngrep - ngrep is like GNU grep applied to the network layer. It's a PCAP-based tool that allows you to specify an extended regular or hexadecimal expression to match against data payloads of packets. It understands many kinds of protocols, including IPv4/6, TCP, UDP, ICMPv4/6, IGMP and Raw, across a wide variety of interface types, and understands BPF filter logic in the same fashion as more common packet sniffing tools, such as tcpdump and snoop.
Centreon - Centreon is a network, system and application monitoring tool. Centreon is the only AIOps Platform Providing Holistic Visibility to Complex IT Workflows from Cloud to Edge.
mimalloc-bench - Suite for benchmarking malloc implementations.
loki - Like Prometheus, but for logs.
WebKit - Home of the WebKit project, the browser engine used by Safari, Mail, App Store and many other applications on macOS, iOS and Linux.
