# netsniff

Simple Python program that scans the network and dumps the results into a file. This program uses Scapy. It can get the IP and MAC mappings and the protocol statistics of the network.

# Network Scanning

The network scan performs an ARP scan to get the IP address and MAC address mappings. To get the protocol statistics, it sniffs through the packets inside the network. The syntax for performing the network scan is as follows:

```

sudo ptyhon3 netsniff.py -i [interface]

```

_This program is design to be run on Linux._

# Arguments
