Michal Purzynski commented on BIT-1363:
---------------------------------------

No, I used unmodified Bro 2.3 and started it on a router with a configuration 
like this

[manager]
type=manager
host=172.19.254.254

[proxy-1]
type=proxy
host=172.19.254.254

[nsm1-eth0]
type=worker
host=172.19.254.254
interface=eth0

Bro starts with a single worker and logs are generated.

Name         Type    Host             Status    Pid    Peers  Started
manager      manager 172.19.254.254   running   16784  2      20 Feb 23:45:34
proxy-1      proxy   172.19.254.254   running   16824  2      20 Feb 23:45:36
nsm1-eth0    worker  172.19.254.254   running   16849  2      20 Feb 23:45:38

>             Project: Bro Issue Tracker
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Bro
>    Affects Versions: git/master
>            Reporter: Michal Purzynski
>
> Let's have a support for packet capture with the AF_PACKET sockets in multi 
> worker configuration.
> Bro can use a single worker with af_packet, I have tested and it works, but 
> having a direct support for multi-worker load balancing would allow to avoid 
> the pf_ring for many deployments with the traffic level where DNA / ZC / 
> Myricom / DAG is not required.
