SSTAP_ip_crawl_tool facilitates the automated collection of remote IP addresses associated with running game processes. This tool addresses the challenge of manually identifying and configuring IP addresses for SSTAP and NETCH rule sets. The tool is written in Python 3 and employs process monitoring techniques to identify relevant processes and extract their IPs.
The tool supports both command-line and graphical user interface (GUI) options, enhancing user accessibility. Recent versions incorporate UDP protocol support and a web-based admin interface. The tool’s ability to automatically generate SSTAP/NETCH rule files simplifies the rule creation process, eliminating manual configuration and reducing errors.
- Process Monitoring: Identifies running processes based on the provided game name.
