Overview
NetFilter SDK is a framework for transparent filtering the data packets transmitted via network. This is a high performance proxy-less solution, compatible with all antiviruses/firewalls/other network filters. It perfectly suits for developing the content filters, basic application level firewalls, traffic analyzers/shapers, other software that requires viewing and modifying TCP/UDP traffic on Windows.

SDK consists of kernel mode and user mode parts. TDI level kernel driver works on the top of TCP/IP stack and filters TCP and UDP protocols. It has a simple user level API, which can be used from C/C++/.NET/Delphi code.

Key features:

  • The solution allows filtering incoming/outgoing TCP connections and UDP datagrams in user mode application. It is possible to filter the specified subset of connections/datagrams, restricted by filtering rules.
  • The filtering is fully transparent, because the driver allows viewing and changing TCP/UDP data without redirecting the traffic to proxy and modifying the addresses. There are no conflicts with antiviruses, firewalls and other filters.
  • The filtering driver operates on transport level, in front of TCP/IP stack. In effect it automatically supports all kinds of TCP/IP capable network adapters: Ethernet, Dial-up/DSL/Cable modems, wireless adapters including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, virtual adapters like loopback or VPN.
  • Both IPv6 and IPv4 are supported.
  • The process context (as process identifier) is available for all network activity.
  • The driver user level interface (API) is easy in use, but powerful. There is no need to deal with the packet headers (like in NDIS level packet filters) or complicated WinSock interfaces.
  • There are no problems with the high-speed connections, because the driver operates on transport level, between the applications and TCP/IP stack. It is possible to control the speed of data transmission.
  • The driver works similarly on all 32-bit and 64-bit Windows operating systems starting from Windows NT. It is possible to use 32-bit API for working with 64-bit driver.

 

System requirements:
Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/7, x86/x64.

 

Limitations:
The driver must be signed with a digital certificate to work properly on 64-bit operating systems starting from WIndows Vista.
