Is possible to analyze a network with PC with Windows and The Dude?

Wed Mar 14, 2018 12:33 pm

Hello everyone!
I want to analyze a network using The Dude, but I do not know if there is any chance of doing this using only a PC with Windows. I say this because it seems that another device running RouterOS is needed now, and another with the cliend would be able to get the data. Correct me if I am wrong, please. I am a bit lost as I do not know either how/where should I load the .npk files ( I guess that running the RouterOS in a device and useing the WinBox application, I would be able to load the .npk files).

Best regards and thanks in advance.

Fulgo.

No, You will need Windows for Dude client and one Mikrotik RouterOS device with dude package installed. It is not necessary to purchase Mikrotik hardware, if You haven't one. You can use CHR on virtual machine https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:CHR
