lupo. simple network debugging.

lupo is useful for debugging network communications.

lupo is tiny & easy to use. Use it when you don't need or want a full blown tcpdump/wireshark.

lupo listens to a tcp port, and forwards it to another. All communication which goes through, both ways, is logged to stdout in a convenient format.

Features:

  • No installation needed. lupo runs as a standalone executable.
  • Cross-platform. Binary available for all major platforms.
  • Works with SSL. Lets you see the encrypted traffic in plain text.
  • Choose between full or short output format with the -style flag.
  • Log statistics to csv (-style stats).

Windows | Mac OS X | Linux tarball | Linux .deb

Example 1: Log http traffic

lupo -from :8080 -to google.com:80

Point your browser to http://localhost:8080. lupo will print something like:

2013-11-30 14:36:26.836   0   0 Listening to [:8080], forwarding to [google.com:80]
2013-11-30 14:36:50.068  [1   0 New connection from [::1]:65468
2013-11-30 14:36:50.069 ->1 360 GET / HTTP/1.1
2013-11-30 14:36:50.105 <-1 506 HTTP/1.1 302 Found <HTML><HEAD><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"> < (...)
2013-11-30 14:38:18.213  ]1   0 Client closed connection

Example 2: Full logging

Use -style full to see everything transmitted:

lupo -from :8080 -to google.com:80 -style full

2013-11-30 14:36:26.836   0   0 Listening to [:8080], forwarding to [google.com:80]
2013-11-30 14:36:50.068  [1   0 New connection from [::1]:65468

Example 3: Log binary communication

lupo tries to detect if binary or textual data is transferred and prints the log accordingly.

This is how a sample Websocket exchange looks like (which is mixed plain text / binary):

2013-11-30 14:36:50.069 ->1 360	GET /cometd HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8081
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Key: LlBN4AdNLrSl5Q0ckDaNaA==
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-Control: no-cache

2013-11-30 14:36:50.105 <-1 506 HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols

Sec-WebSocket-Accept: pRsBu2MWn3KruE+/O0JDGNcnKTk=

Example 4: Log statistics

Use the -style stats flag to print statistics in a csv format:

lupo -from :8080 -to google.com:80 -style stats
