We currently have a solid solution in the scatter test suite patch. The filtering is not the main thrust of the patch so it doesn't provide a fully fleshed out solution. We should think about the following: - The solution covers the main use cases, probably what's needed for labs, - We must document what we're filtering and warn that if a setup deviates (e.g. there's extra traffic that's not going to be filtered) there could be related test failures, - Related to the above, we could add a config option for extra default filtering. - The solution must be abstracted properly so it's easily implementable for all capturing traffic generators.
