Integration of DPI libraries in argus?

Hello,

Has there been any interest in adding further DPI capabilities to argus?

Before arriving on argus, I looked at ntop, and it appears that they have a
re-packaged and integrated the OpenDPI library as nDPI and are planning to
integrate it into the next stable release of ntop.

It appears that argus would greatly benefit from something similar to nDPI,
application detection, as additional record data.

As it stands, and please correct me if I'm wrong, without extending argus
to encompass application detection, a decent method would be to have an
ntop instance running along side argus, and attempting to correlate the
flows, then utilizing nDPI's application diagnosis.

Has DPI (application detection) ever been considered to be integrated into
argus?


Thanks again,

Matt
