Description-en: extensible deep packet inspection library - wireshark dissector
nDPI is a ntop-maintained superset of the popular OpenDPI library. Released
under the LGPL license, its goal is to extend the original library by adding
new protocols that are otherwise available only on the paid version of
OpenDPI.
.
nDPI has also been modified to be suitable for traffic monitoring
applications, by disabling specific features that slow down the DPI engine
while being them un-necessary for network traffic monitoring.
.
With nDPI, it is possible to both detect known protocols on non-standard ports
(e.g. detect http non ports other than 80), and also the opposite.
.
This package contains the wireshark dissector based on nDPI. The dissector is
installed in the plugin directory for the current wireshark version.
