Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2019-4fe461079f
2019-10-27 01:29:09.690085
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : libpcap
Product : Fedora 31
Version : 1.9.1
Release : 1.fc31
URL : http://www.tcpdump.org
Summary : A system-independent interface for user-level packet capture
Description :
Libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network
monitoring. Libpcap can provide network statistics collection,
security monitoring and network debugging. Since almost every system
vendor provides a different interface for packet capture, the libpcap
authors created this system-independent API to ease in porting and to
alleviate the need for several system-dependent packet capture modules
in each application.
Install libpcap if you need to do low-level network traffic monitoring
on your network.
