This goal of this project is to provide a consistent interface to LBL's libpcap
|
|
|
|
|
packet capture library. This project was created because the currently
|
|
|
|
|
available ruby-pcap library is poorly designed and has been unmaintained since
|
|
|
|
|
2000. This does not provide packet processing functionality, it simply provides
|
|
|
|
|
the interface for capturing packets. For packet processing capability, see the
|
|
|
|
|
PacketRub project (http://packetrub.rubyforge.org).
