Überblick
Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) library
Verlauf
nDPI is ntop's open source deep packet inspection library for classifying application-layer traffic, extracting selected metadata, analyzing encrypted traffic, and exposing APIs for traffic analysis.
ntop describes nDPI as a maintained DPI toolkit released under LGPL, created to extend the original OpenDPI library with protocols that were otherwise available only in the paid OpenDPI version. The project was also modified for traffic-monitoring workloads by disabling features that slowed down the DPI engine without helping monitoring use cases.
The nDPI README cites the 2014 IWCMC paper `nDPI: Open-source high-speed deep packet inspection`, anchoring the project in academic and operational network-monitoring history. The GitHub API reports the ntop/nDPI repository was created on April 19, 2015.
nDPI has the strongest adoption signal in this batch. ntop says it is used in ntop tools and third-party applications, including ntopng and nProbe Cento, to detect application protocols independently of ports. The official product page lists enterprise and ISP use cases such as traffic classification, content filtering, anomaly detection, QoS, bandwidth management, and IDS/IPS enrichment.
The repository had about 4.5k GitHub stars and 993 forks on July 1, 2026. Homebrew Formulae listed stable 5.0, 739 installs, and 142 installs-on-request in its 365-day analytics window on the same date.
Developers embed the C library into probes, firewalls, monitoring agents, or security tools, then feed it packets or flows to classify protocols, risks, and metadata. The README also documents `ndpiReader`, build steps, test scripts, and the process for adding a new protocol dissector.
Operational users tend to encounter nDPI indirectly through ntopng, nProbe, nProbe Cento, Wireshark-related packaging, or distro packages such as Debian's libndpi-bin/libndpi-dev.
nDPI is package-significant because it is both a library and a CLI/tooling package. It sits at the boundary between observability, security, packet capture, and policy enforcement, and its protocol database needs continuing updates as applications move ports, encrypt traffic, or change signatures.
