| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 1 Libpcap is a system-independent interface for user-level packet capture. |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 2 Libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network monitoring. |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 3 Applications include network statistics collection, security monitoring, |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 4 network debugging, etc. Since almost every system vendor provides a |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 5 different interface for packet capture, and since we've developed several |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 6 tools that require this functionality, we've created this system-independent |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 7 API to ease in porting and to alleviate the need for several |
| Hans-G?nter@24821 | 8 system-dependent packet capture modules in each application. |
