Or check the library.  I have a copy too, but keep it handy for those cold 
nights when I need to go write some code ;-)

I have that book if you want to borrow it.

Yeah, the more I think about this, the more I think it might involve using some 
‘random’ port number on a remote server to send a packet that has ‘something’

its security depends ENTIRELY upon obscurity – as long as nobody knows about 
it, it is ‘secure’.  However, as soon as someone ELSE knows about it…  oops.

Go grab the white book “UNIX Network Programming” by W. Richard Stevens and you 
can write both ends in a relatively short time, other than perhaps the 
digitizing and decoding part.

the kernel of truth is that you can use cat-x cable to do this, but any 
ethernet switches in the line will either interrupt completely or filter out 
the extraneous data as noise. In either case, your "out of band" transmissions 
will be eaten by the first switch they come across.

Not sure myself honestly. The guy was using buzz words like “out of band

“untraceable” data without the use of IP.

I am trying to be objective about it but it seems like it wouldn’t be an 
effective method of getting data out of a network.

So potentially there is a kernel (heh) of truth in there. Who knows right now I 
guess.

Thanks,

Steve is right you can use RJ45 to transmit. The signal but Ethernet switch are 
expecting Ethernet frames.

Are you talking about embedding this sort of functional noise into a line being 
used by ethernet? and yes most quality switches would try to clean up the noise 
in order to secure the data unless it just created enough of an interruption to 
just disrupt the connection as a whole.

RJ45 is a socket type so you can wire it to do whatever you want. you can use 
cat 4,5,6 cable to transport anything you want. I know multiple sites that 
wired ethernet cable for POTS just because it gave them the ability to do a 
number of things based on need.

Any one have any experience with dtmf (beeps and boops over phone) but using 
rj45 instead of rj11?

I viewed a claim that the intel me can produce dtmf instructions that will be 
regarded as noise by tools like wireshark and can be used to transfer things 
like encryption keys surreptitiously over the net without being seen by 
monitoring tools.

Essentially data is hidden in sight as noise on the line and picked up 
somewhere else.

Rj11 phone line can do this. But can it be done with rj45? Wouldn’t the first 
switch it hit just smooth noise?
