Andre Heider 35f4ef76e0 treewide: refactor to use PKG_BUILD_FLAGS:=gc-sections
See commit da370098 "treewide: add support for "gc-sections" in
PKG_BUILD_FLAGS" on the main repository.

Note: This only touches packages which use all three parts
(-ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and -Wl,--gc-sections) enabled by
this build flag. Some packages only use a subset, and these are left
unchanged for now.

Netify Agent

Copyright ©2015-2020 eGloo Incorporated (www.egloo.ca)

Network Intelligence - Simplified

The Netify Agent is a deep-packet inspection server. The Agent is built on top of nDPI (formerly OpenDPI) to detect network protocols and applications. Detections can be saved locally, served over a UNIX or TCP socket, and/or "pushed" (via HTTP POSTs) to a remote third-party server. Flow metadata, network statistics, and detection classifications are stored using JSON encoding.

Optionally, the Netify Agent can be coupled with a Netify Cloud subscription for further cloud processing, historical storage, machine-learning analysis, event notifications, device detection/identification, along with the option (on supported platforms) to take an active role in policing/bandwidth-shaping specific network protocols and applications.

Download Packages

Supported platforms with installation instructions can be found here.

Alternatively, binary packages are available for the following OS distributions (manual install):

Runtime Requirements

  • [Linux] Ensure that the nfnetlink and nf_conntrack_netlink kernel modules are loaded if NAT detection is enabled.

Download Source

When cloning the source tree, ensure you use --recursive to include all sub-modules.

Build Requirements

Netify requires the following third-party packages:

  • libcurl
  • libpcap
  • zlib
  • [Linux] libmnl
  • [Linux] libnetfilter-conntrack

Optional:

  • google-perftools/gperftools/libtcmalloc (will use bundled version when not available)

Configuring/Building From Source

Read the appropriate documentation in the doc directory, prefixed with: BUILD-*

Generally the process is:

./autogen.sh
./configure
make
