History

Arne Welzel 0bc7d0905e Include in Jan's AF_PACKET plugin as builtin plugin This has come up a few times and the motivation is mainly better "first timer" experience with Zeek. Concretely, if one wants to run a Zeek cluster with multiple workers and reasonable load balancing on Linux, AF_PACKET is a decent start. Without AF_PACKET support being built into Zeek, however, a new user's next experience is that of setting up a development environment in order to compile an external plugin (think compiler, kernel headers, zkg, ...). Only to get what could be termed basic functionality. This is using the ZEEK_INCLUDE_PLUGINS infrastructure. I've used the all upper case spelling of AF_PACKET in the help output because it seems everyone else references/writes it like that. I think we should also write it like that in the docs.	2022-10-13 13:29:27 +02:00
