Description-en: IP network transaction auditing tool
argus is a network transaction auditing tool that allows the user
to easily classify connections using tcpdump(1) compliant expressions.
Argus runs as an application level daemon, promiscuously reading network
datagrams from a specified interface, and generates network traffic audit
records for the network activity that it encounters.
Auditing records can be used to ensure that access control policies are
being enforced, identify network problems such as denial of service attacks
and more.
.
This package contains the binaries required for the argus server.
Please see the package argus-client for appropriate clients.
