1 Net::Pcap is a Perl binding to the LBL pcap(3) library and its Win32 counterpart,
2 the WinPcap library.
3 Pcap (packet capture) is a portable API to capture network packet:
4 it allows applications to capture packets at link-layer, bypassing the normal
5 protocol stack.
6 It also provides features like kernel-level packet filtering and access to
7 internal statistics.
9 Common applications include network statistics collection, security monitoring,
10 network debugging, etc.
