Could someone please spell out exactly what this provider is trying to do? SDT probes can provide of the above info. So why do we need a new provider for this? As Kacheong asked, what are the guidelines for new providers, vs usage of existing probes. > Probes in/for ipf could possibly be a seperate follow-on project by itself. I thought the argument being made was to only support protocol/states defined in RFCs (rfc793 was touted as the example). So would that not exclude ipf? --Sowmini _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
