About

EtherApe is a graphical network monitor for Unix systems, modeled after Etherman, that displays network activity graphically, with hosts and links changing in size based on traffic volume and color-coded protocols. It supports various devices, including FDDI, ISDN, PPP, SLIP, and WLAN, as well as several encapsulation formats. Users can filter displayed traffic and capture data live from the network or read from a file. Node statistics can be exported for further analysis. The tool offers link layer, IP, and TCP modes, allowing users to focus on specific protocol stack levels. It provides detailed information on each node and link, including protocol breakdown and traffic statistics. EtherApe is open source software released under the GNU General Public License. A single node can be centered on the display and several user-chosen nodes can be arranged in an inner circle with other nodes around. An alternative display mode arranges nodes in "columns".

About

Headscale is an open-source, self-hosted implementation of the control server used by the Tailscale network, enabling users to keep full ownership of their private tailnets while using Tailscale clients. It supports registering users and nodes, issuing pre-authentication keys, advertising subnet-routes and exit-node capabilities, enforcing access-control lists, and integrating with OIDC/SAML identity providers for user authentication. The server is deployable via Debian/Ubuntu packages or standalone binaries, configurable through a YAML file, and managed via its CLI or REST API. Headscale tracks each node, route, and user in its database, supports route approval workflows, and enables features such as subnet routing, exit node designation, and node-to-node mesh within the tailnet. Being self-hosted, it gives organizations and hobbyists full control over their private network endpoints, encryption keys, and traffic flows, rather than depending on a commercial control plane.
