Packet Header Data Set

Raw Datasets 2019 – present

About this dataset

The M-Lab packet-headers service provides a binary which collects packet headers for all incoming TCP flows and saves each stream of packet captures into a per-stream .pcap file where the filename is the UUID of the TCP flow. It only saves the packet headers, and it supports (with a command-line flag) IP anonymity for the saved addresses.
