UNSW IoT traffic data with packets, flows, and protocols

The UNSW IoT traffic data (UNSW-IoTraffic) is a dataset comprising (a) raw network packet traces with full headers and payload, (b) flow-level metadata summarizing fine-grained bidirectional activity behaviors, and (c) protocol parameters describing network protocol characteristics.  The dataset also includes scripts written in Java for flow extraction and protocol matching using protocol data models, along with data models for six dominant protocols (TLS, HTTP, DNS, DHCP, SSDP, and NTP). The dataset contains 95.5 million packets of IoT communications captured over 203 days, organized into 27 per-device packet capture (PCAP) files. Derived flow data, categorized based on the 5-tuple attributes (source IP address, destination IP address, protocol number, source port number, destination port number), are provided as 27 per-device CSV files. Additionally, protocol-specific parameters for 70%  flows are extracted into a total of 450 CSV files across 27 device types, covering 25 pr..., , # UNSW IoT traffic data with packets, flows, and protocols Dataset DOI: [10.5061/dryad.w0vt4b94b](10.5061/dryad.w0vt4b94b) **UNSW-IoTraffic** is a multi-resolution network traffic dataset of consumer IoT devices captured from a lab testbed. It includes device-specific **raw PCAPs** (full headers and payloads), **flow-level CSVs** (bidirectional 5-tuple flows with statistics), and **protocol-parameter CSVs** (request/response attributes for selected protocols). The capture covers **27 devices**, spans **≈203 days** of operation (setup, idle, and interactions), and totals **95,543,405 packets**, **4,944,041 flows**, and **≈26.9 GB** of PCAPs. All timestamps are recorded in **UTC**. ## Description of the data and file structure We provide five ZIP archives so you can fetch only what you need: * **UNSW-IoTraffic.zip** (root) * **pcaps.zip** – 27 device-specific raw packet traces (`.pcap`) * **flows.zip** – 27 device-specific flow-level CSVs * **protocols.zip** – protocol **models/** an...,
