ngrep strives to provide most of GNU grep's common features, applying
them to the network layer. ngrep is a pcap-aware tool that will allow
you to specify extended regular or hexadecimal expressions to match
-against data payloads of packets. It currently recognizes IPv4/6, TCP,
-UDP, ICMPv4/6, IGMP and Raw across Ethernet, PPP, SLIP, FDDI, Token
-Ring and null interfaces, and understands BPF filter logic in the same
-fashion as more common packet sniffing tools, such as tcpdump and snoop.
