Snort 2.9 introduces the DAQ, or Data Acquisition library,
|
||
|
|
for packet I/O. The DAQ replaces direct calls to PCAP functions
|
||
|
|
with an abstraction layer that facilitates operation on a variety
|
||
|
|
of hardware and software interfaces without requiring changes
|
||
|
|
to Snort. It is possible to select the DAQ type and mode
|
||
|
|
when invoking Snort to perform PCAP readback or inline operation, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The DAQ library may be useful for other packet processing applications
|
||
|
|
and the modular nature allows you to build new modules for other
|
||
|
|
platforms.
