+Libnids is a library that provides the function of one of the NIDS
+(Network Intrusion Detection System) components, namely E-component. The
+libnids code watches all local network traffic, processes received
+datagrams a bit, and provides convenient information on them to analyzing
+modules. Libnids performs:
+
+a) assembly of TCP segments into TCP streams
+b) IP defragmentation
+c) TCP port scan detection
