Description-en: pcap extension to ulogd
ulogd is an advanced netfilter logging daemon. It can act as a replacement for
syslog for logging netfilter ruleset violations (via the NFLOG or ULOG iptables
targets), can gather per-connection accounting using NFCT, or gather per-rule
accounting using NFACCT. Output can be sent to plain text log files, a variety
of SQL database formats, XML files, pcap files, syslog, and many other formats.
.
This module add pcap file support to ulogd. If you install this package, you
can use ulogd to dump packets to a file for later analysis using tools such
as tcpdump or wireshark.
