I am looking for a good professional modbus sniffer tool to scan the master slave communication. Please any one have idea ?

Dani
You could use Wireshark. Excellent tool. Modbus TCP supported.
If you have a RS232 or RS485 communication line, I suggest you RSMonitor
RSMonitor
If you get the right connections setup to monitor a serial stream. Realterm works well.

I want to use Ethernet TCP-IP communication between an STM32F3 and a computer.
I am using an ENC28J60 module for this. But all the codes I've tried do not work. Where can I find documentation for this communication?
Resources I've used:
https://github.com/xukai871105/uip_freemodbus_tcp (I changed it to STM32F3 but the communication didn't succeed).

I need to connect to a remote server via a modem for a legacy app. I don’t have physical access to my server so adding a real modem isn't an option.
Does anyone know of:
A service that provides Modem Over IP? Something like Twilio, but just for modems.
A modem / SIP client that would allow me to emulate a modem on a specific COM port that connects to a VOIP provider?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I see quite a few people with this problem, but no great solutions.
Thanks!

I think what you are looking for is PPP (or maybe PPPoE). PPP is very common and is still used heavily today pretty much everywhere you have a home connected internet connection.
You need to look at whatever OS you are using and see what they provide to be able connect two computers via a modem and create a TCP/IP connection between them. That way you don't need to change your program, as it will showup as a network connection.
Under windows you have this for accepting incoming connections.
I want to forward all my tcp and udp connection from one of my port and pass them to another machine. Do you have any ideal ?
There is no general solution for all OSes (of courses).
A simple Google search gives you:

I am testing a thick client which is connected to a database, need to sniff traffic b/w tcp port on same machine
WireShark (formerly Ethereal) will work perfectly, if you're not familiar with it, it can be a little tricky on OSX, Windows it's no problem and Linux can be a headache. You can download it here http://www.wireshark.org/, and read a short-primer here - http://www.ipprimer.com/packets.cfm
Essentially there's a capture phase, and then you can work with the data – for your purposes you can live-capture and filter the output to the packets on the port/destination you care about, I've used it many-a-time to debug dodgy home networking, or problems at the office.
Beware if using MySQL and localhost for example, this is a key-word for MySQL and it will infact use the socket instead.. which makes things a matter more complicated, you can circumvent this problem by always making sure to use 127.0.0.1 if working with MySQL. (Perhaps other software uses this convention?)
You can try some tools like WireShark.
Assuming you're on Windows:
I'd split the client and server across two machines, either two real ones, or a VM with something VMWare. Then I'd use Wireshark.
I have written a small client server socket application. It is a proof of concept for some socket programming that I want to apply to a much bigger project.
For the moment I want to user wireshark to analyse the traffic that goes between them. They are both running on my local machine.
I have installed a loopback interface, and have tried to use wireshark with it.
No joy. Any ideas?
I have successfully analysed traffic between my machine and other machines no problems.
I have had a look here,
http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/Loopback
And I am not using the address 127.0.0.1 which they mention saying you can't capture traffic on 127.0.0.1
Thanks.
You might try creating a virtual machine to run your application and using wireshark on it.
Save yourself some grief and download Microsoft Network Monitor.
As good as Wireshark is on Unixen, Windows is a "special" case :)
