+Endace DAG
+==========
+
+Suricata comes with native Endace DAG card support. This means Suricata can use the *libdag* interface directly, instead of a libpcap wrapper (which should also work).
+
+Steps:
+
+Configure with DAG support:
+
+::
+
+ ./configure --enable-dag --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
+ make
+ sudo make install
+
+Results in:
+
+::
+
+ Suricata Configuration:
+ AF_PACKET support: no
+ PF_RING support: no
+ NFQueue support: no
+ IPFW support: no
+ DAG enabled: yes
+ Napatech enabled: no
+
+
+Start with:
+
+::
+
+ suricata -c suricata.yaml --dag 0:0
+
+
+Started up!
