PF_RING 7.0 Supports Flow Shunting
PF_RING is a popular, open-source, kernel-based (Linux) packet capture software. It has widespread industry adoption and works with various industry-standard software such as Argus, Snort, Suricata, and Wireshark. PF_RING also fully supports all Accolade adapters. In other words, if you use PF_RING you can easily use an Accolade adapter without making any significant modification to your application. With the latest PF_RING 7.0, Accolade flow shunting features are also fully supported. Read a complete blog post describing the flow shunting support here.
