NODE INFORMATION DETECTION APPARATUS, NODE INFORMATION DETECTION METHOD, AND PROGRAM

摘要

A node information detection apparatus (2000) identifies the type of an Operating System (OS) operating on a node (3000) that is connected via a network (4000). A message transmission unit (2020) transmits a transmission message to be responded to through IPv6 protocol stack processing that is executed at a kernel level implemented in at least one or more types of OSs. A message reception unit (2040) receives a response message from the node (3000) that received the transmission message. An OS type identification unit (2060) identifies the type of OS operating on the node (3000) on the basis of the contents of the response message received from the node (3000) or on the basis of presence or absence of a response message from the node (3000).

主权项

1. A node information detection apparatus comprising:
a message transmission unit that is configured to transmit, onto a network, a transmission message that is responded to through processing of IPv6 protocol stack that is implemented in at least one or more types of Operating Systems (OSs), the processing being executed at a kernel level of the OS; a message reception unit that is configured to receive a response message to the transmission message from a node which received the transmission message; and an OS type identification unit that is configured to identify the type of OS operating on the node on the basis of the contents of the response message transmitted by the node, or on the basis of presence or absence of the response message from the node.
