I perform content inspection of various types:
IPv4 - supported
IPv6 - supported
TCP - supported
UDP - supported
DNS - need custom binary payload
sFlow - need custom binary payload
Netflow - need custom sequence (supported) and custom binary payload
UDP Syslog - need custom ASCII payload (binary would of course work)
TCP Syslog - need custom ASCII payload (probably impossible w/ this tool as a
three-way handshake is needed for me to begin receiving in the app, which is
among other things a high performance Syslog digester, but UDP is enough for
now)
Because it's a security app I have to model things like "99% boring, 1%
interesting" as packets which raise alerts cost more resources than packets
which do not.
Matthew.
