✨ detect_sniffer6 β€” catching LAN sniffers, bestie ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

detect_sniffer6


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

detect_sniffer6 interface [target6]

Bestie, this tests if systems on the local LAN are sniffing. It works against Windows, Linux, OS/X and *BSD. If no target is given, the link-local-all-nodes address is used β€” but heads up, that does not always work. 😭
