The reason: vendors have bugs in their accounting implementations, and we
want to be able to show them the original raw packets to prove it's not our
accounting collectors which are mis-interpreting the data.
The problem with tcpdump is being able to find quickly the packets of
interest (e.g. given a username, or given a FreeRadius
Acct-Unique-Session-Id which is an MD5 across multiple attributes). So I
want to extract the attributes of interest and index them alongside the raw
data, or offsets into the raw data.
