PFQ is a network monitoring framework designed for the Linux operating system that allows efficient packet capture, in-kernel functional processing and packet steering across sockets.

PFQ is highly optimized for multi-core architecture, as well as for network devices equipped with multiple hardware queues. It works with any network device driver (binaries shipped with the Linux Kernel) and provides a script that produces accelerated versions starting from their source codespfq-omatic.

Before you start using PFQ, please read the Getting Started Guide
