+Net::Pcap is a Perl binding to the LBL pcap(3) library. The README for libpcap
+describes itself as "a system-independent interface for user-level packet
+capture. libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network
+monitoring. Applications include network statistics collection, security
+monitoring, network debugging, etc."
+
+This requires perl-IO-Interface.
