Using the Endace DAG 3.7GF card with FreeBSD 7.0

The Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures (CAIA) recently acquired 4 Endace DAG 3.7GF high performance capture cards. Where possible, the Centre’s standard experimental environment utilises the FreeBSD operating system and commodity PC hardware to perform experimental research. This report details how to use DAG 3.7GF capture cards with FreeBSD 7.0 in a variety of commonly required experimental network configurations used in day-to-day research.
