Hello all

So, I'm running Suricata from git with PF_RING 5.4.3(revision 5441).

I'm starting with:

suricata --pfring-int=eth6 -c /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml
- -F /etc/suricata/bpf.check --user suricata --group suricata

The file 'bpf.check' just contains:

icmp

but I'm seeing logs and alerts on plenty of other traffic.

Do the PF_RING options (including bpf filter) only take from
suricata.yaml? Is '-F' purely for pcap capturing?

Thanks.
