"This is invention comprises a method and apparatus for Infinite Network
Packet Capture System (INPCS). The INPCS is a high performance data
capture recorder capable of capturing and archiving all network traffic
present on a single network or multiple networks. This device can be
attached to Ethernet networks via copper or SX fiber via either a SPAN
port (101) router configuration or via an optical splitter (102). By
this method, multiple sources or network traffic including gigabit
Ethernet switches (102) may provide parallelized data feeds to the
capture appliance (104), effectively increasing collective data capture
capacity. Multiple captured streams are merged into a consolidated time
indexed capture stream to support asymmetrically routed network traffic
as well as other merged streams for external consumption. "
So you patented network sniffer?
LOL.
You may also want to "invent" a layer between user program and hardware
aka operating system ;)
