LAN HTTP Monitor

LAN HTTP Monitor is an ultra-simplistic software application that you can use to monitor the communication between the local network and Internet on any selected interface, and record all transferred data.
It comes loaded with minimal options that don't require special experience with networking software.

Fast setup and simple UI

Installing this program is a fast and simple task that shouldn't bring up any issues. LAN HTTP Monitor is wrapped in a plain-looking interface made by a simple window that shows all options available.

Easily capture LAN traffic

All you have to do is select the LAN interface to monitor, pick a free port for the proxy, and start the monitoring operation with one click. If you have User Account Control enabled, the app may ask you for permission to access the Internet.
The network computers' IP addresses and accessed URLs are displayed in the main frame, and you can copy this logged information to the Clipboard for closer examination. Unfortunately, LAN HTTP Monitor doesn't integrate an option for printing logs or exporting them to file.

Evaluation and conclusion

No error dialogs were shown in our tests, and the utility didn't freeze or crash. As we expected, it had a small impact on computer performance, using low CPU and memory. Although it doesn't feature too many options and no customization settings, LAN HTTP Monitor provides users of any skill level with a simple method to capture all data packets transferred between computers in the local network. Plus, it's free for educational and non-commercial purposes.
