Michal Purzynski commented on BIT-1363: --------------------------------------- To be honest, we will spend more time trying to force libpcap to do something than writing a Bro AF_PACKET plugin. The later seems to be very clean, too. https://github.com/bro/bro-plugins/tree/master/netmap https://github.com/bro/bro-plugins/tree/master/pf_ring > Clustered AF_PACKET support > --------------------------- > > Key: BIT-1363 > URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1363 > Project: Bro Issue Tracker > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Bro > Affects Versions: git/master > Reporter: Michal Purzynski > Attachments: pcap.c > > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.0.0-OD-07-011#70107) _______________________________________________ bro-dev mailing list bro-dev@bro.org http://mailman.icsi.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/bro-dev
