-/*Package pfring wraps the PF_RING C library for Go.
-
-PF_RING is a high-performance packet capture library written by ntop.org (see
-http://www.ntop.org/products/pf_ring/). This library allows you to utilize the
-PF_RING library with gopacket to read packet data and decode it.
-
-This package is meant to be used with its parent,
-http://github.com/google/gopacket, although it can also be used independently
-if you just want to get packet data from the wire.
-
-Simple Example
-
-This is probably the simplest code you can use to start getting packets through
-pfring:
-
- if ring, err := pfring.NewRing("eth0", 65536, pfring.FlagPromisc); err != nil {
- panic(err)
- } else if err := ring.SetBPFFilter("tcp and port 80"); err != nil { // optional
- panic(err)
- } else if err := ring.Enable(); err != nil { // Must do this!, or you get no packets!
- panic(err)
- } else {
- packetSource := gopacket.NewPacketSource(ring, layers.LinkTypeEthernet)
- for packet := range packetSource.Packets() {
- handlePacket(packet) // Do something with a packet here.
- }
- }
-
-Pfring Tweaks
-
-PF_RING has a ton of optimizations and tweaks to make sure you get just the
-packets you want. For example, if you're only using pfring to read packets,
-consider running:
-
- ring.SetSocketMode(pfring.ReadOnly)
-
-If you only care about packets received on your interface (not those transmitted
-by the interface), you can run:
-
- ring.SetDirection(pfring.ReceiveOnly)
-
-Pfring Clusters
-
-PF_RING has an idea of 'clusters', where multiple applications can all read from
-the same cluster, and PF_RING will multiplex packets over that cluster such that
-only one application receives each packet. We won't discuss this mechanism in
-too much more detail (see the ntop.org docs for more info), but here's how to
-utilize this with the pfring go library:
-
- ring.SetCluster(1, pfring.ClusterPerFlow5Tuple)
