A GUI viewer for saphics/ip-location-db ip-geolocation databases, which can display your computer's live network traffic and perform trace routes.

Search	Capture	Traceroute

On Linux, WebKitGTK is the only uncommon dependency.

• On Linux, install libpcap.
• On Windows, install Npcap with network capture for non-administrator users.
• On macOS, libpcap is already installed.

On Windows, you must enable a firewall rule to send ICMP packets for the traceroute feature.
