The user created a tool called PacMap, a visual network traffic analyzer designed to complement Wireshark. It displays hosts as nodes and conversations as edges, supports live capture and pcap replay, and includes features like timeline scrubbing, diff/compare functionality, and filtering for protocols (TCP/UDP/DNS/ARP). The tool also allows muting broadcast/multicast noise and inspecting packets without navigating large datasets.
