Listend
The primary function of Listend
is to capture
network traffic packets from the configured primary and secondary
interfaces and send them to the reassembly process, Reassd
. Listend
is
essentially a packet sniffer. It uses the configured and ignored traffic
to determine the packets to capture. Listend
buffers
the packets that it sends to Reassd
in memory to
accommodate small delays in the ability of Reassd
to
read the packets. Listend
additionally provides packet archiving
to record the captured packets to files on the local hard disk.
