Tool
FirmAE
Emulate router and IP-camera firmware to inspect network services and runtime behavior, with automated emulation checks and separate analysis, run, and debugging modes.
Requirements and limitations
- The README documents Ubuntu 20.04 as the tested host; prepare the recursive source checkout, downloaded dependencies, initialized database, and a supported firmware image.
- The installer configures QEMU, PostgreSQL, extraction tools, and other host packages; documented run modes require elevated privileges. Docker orchestration is also provided.
- Successful emulation depends on the firmware image; upstream benchmark results are not a guarantee for an untested device or newer host distribution.
