snooper - serial line snooping tool
|
|
The tool is for snooping communication between two devices
|
|
that communicate with RS232C serial line.
|
|
|
|
Machine configuration
|
|
There are 3 machines/modems to take part in the configuration.
|
|
We will denote those machines as follows:
|
|
partyA a computer
|
|
partyB computer/modem/digi-cam/whatever
|
|
console The computer you are using to snoop
|
|
the communication between A and B.
|
|
|
|
Say, you would like to snoop the following configuration.
|
|
partyA ---cableAB--- partyB
|
|
In that case you should connect "console" between partyA and
|
|
cableAB, as follows:
|
|
partyA ---cableX--- console ---cableAB--- party B
|
|
cableX must be cross-cable (a cable to connect two computers).
|
|
|
|

|
