Dear all,
as i read in an overwiev-paper
(http://ntop.ethereal.com/ntop-overview.pdf) it should be possible to
detect NICs in promiscuous mode. Is this correct and how does this work?
I don't understand how ntop will detect this only by analyzing the
traffic on a gateway for example and not on the local-machine where the
NIC is in this mode?
Regards
Thomas Kuehling
