For example, say you would like to snoop the following configuration
|
|
|
|
|
partyA ---cableAB--- partyB
|
|
|
|
|
where partyA is a computer and partyB is a computer/modem/digi-cam/whatever.

A third machine called "console" running snooper can be used to snoop

|
|
|
the connection between partyA and cableAB, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
partyA ---cableX--- <dev0>console<dev1>---cableAB--- party B
