"SLC5X: Letter L: libpcap-devel

libpcap-devel - A pcap library.

Website: http://www.tcpdump.org
License: BSD
Vendor: Scientific Linux
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.

This package provides the libraries, include files, and other
resources needed for developing libpcap applications.
