Description
Can l7-filter the application layer feature be included either via the standard repository or sfw repository. The l7-filter is available as GNU GPL v2.
L7-Filter description
L7-filter is a classifier for Linux's Netfilter that identifies packets based on application layer data. It can classify packets as Kazaa, HTTP, Jabber, Citrix, BitTorrent, FTP, Gnucleus, eDonkey2000, etc., regardless of port. It complements existing classifiers that match on IP address, port numbers and so on.
Our intent is for l7-filter to be used in conjunction with Linux QoS to do bandwidth arbitration (“packet shaping”) or traffic accounting.
