Name Type Description
PacketFilter simple module

This module filters for packets matching the configured filter criteria. When the filter is pushed by a connected packet producer, it either pushes the packet to the connected packet consumer or drops it depending on the configured packet filter. Similarily, when the filter is popped by a connected packet collector, it pops packets from the connected packet provider until it finds one which matches the configured packet filter.
