Free mapi software for linux

Monitoring API project is a multi-user programming interface designed to simplify the development of network monitoring software and allows users to express their monitoring needs in a device-independent way.
The main abstraction provided by MAPI is the network flow. Although flows have been used before in network monitoring systems, MAPI gives flows a first-class status. Applications that uses MAPI can specify what flows or flow statistics they are interested in by applying functions to flows.
A MAPI function can be a BPF filter, string search, packet counter or more advanced like a NetFlow generator. These function will automatically run in hardware if there is support for it on the hardware being used.
MAPI currently supports the following hardware:
- Normal NICs through libpcap
- DAG cards without co-processor
- SCAMPI adapter
Enhancements:
- This release includes support for distributed monitoring, several new MAPI functions, demo applications, and a lot of bugfixes.

Bio::Map::CytoMap is a Bio::MapI compliant map implementation handling cytogenic bands.

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Map::CytoMap;
my $map = new Bio::Map::CytoMap(-name => human1,
-species => $human);
foreach my $marker ( @markers ) { # get a list of markers somewhere
$map->add_element($marker);
}

This is the simple implementation of cytogenetic maps based on Bio::Map::MapI. It handles the essential storage of name, species, type, and units as well as in memory representation of the elements of a map.

For CytoMaps type is hard coded to be cytogeneticmap and units are set to but can be set to something else.

The fairly fast packet filter (FFPF) is an approach to network packet processing that adds many new features to existing filtering solutions like BPF.
fairly fast packet filter is designed for high speed by pushing computationally intensive tasks to the kernel or even network processors and by minimising packet copying.
By providing both access to richer programming languages and explicit extensibility, it is also considerably more flexible than existing approaches.
FFPF provides a complete solution for network monitoring that caters to all applications available today. Exploiting its extensibility, the language can even be used as a meta-filter to `script together filters from other approaches, such as BPF.
Main features:
- fast: processes significantly more packets per second than LSF (reference)
- scalable: transparently supports hardware assist, like that given by the Intel IXP2x00 network processors
- backward compatible: supports all existing libpcap based applications
- extensible: separates functionality from the framework. FFPF currently ships with implementations of BPF, Aho Corasick, Boyer Moore Horspool, and many more
- modular: new functions can be written in as little as 3 lines of code
- secure: relies on Keynote for authentication and resource control
- open and standard adherent: licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). It implements the Monitoring API (MAPI) draft as designed by the EU-SCAMPI consortium
Enhancements:
- enabled kernelspace processing
- enabled all 5 buffer implementations (Continuous, Fixed-size slot, Variable sized slot, Double ring and Index)
- added TCP stream reassembly and early implementation of zero-copy reassembly
- added PCAP input and output support, for userspace testing and offline use
- added additional minor functions: TCP Synprotect, output to files, ...
- added support for UDEV
- extended controlplane: flowspaces can now be queried for live state
- fixed up many bugs, hacks and irregularities.
