Libnids is a library that provides the function of one of the NIDS
(Network Intrusion Detection System) components, namely E-component. The
libnids code watches all local network traffic, processes received
datagrams a bit, and provides convenient information on them to analyzing
modules. Libnids performs:
a) assembly of TCP segments into TCP streams
b) IP defragmentation
c) TCP port scan detection
This slave port builds with libnet11 by default.

===> The following configuration options are available for libnids-libnet11-1.24_3:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
GLIB2=on: Use GLIB2 for multiprocessing support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Install net/libnet headers and libraries back in the location where other
ports expect it. The files were put in a different location to avoid a
conflict with net/libnet10 but this port has been removed a while ago now.

libnids-libnet11 is a slave port of libnids that specifically uses libnet11.
This is required because vortex needs libnids built with libnet11 while other
ports (dsniff) needs libnids built with libnet10.
