🌸 NAME 🌸

slinkwatch — automatic maintenance of Suricata monitoring interfaces 👑

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

slinkwatch [flags]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. slinkwatch plus whatever flags you want to sprinkle on top ✨

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so picture this: slinkwatch is a tool that dynamically maintains interface entries in Suricata's configuration file, and it does it based on what network interfaces are actually connected at any given moment. like, it's literally watching and updating for you, no cap 💅

the whole point? it's meant to make deploying identical sensor installations across many heterogenous sites soooo much easier 🎀 that way you can make full use of the sensor resources even when the monitoring volume keeps varying from place to place. different sites, different amounts of traffic, same clean config — she ate 🔥

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -h, --help[=false] — the classic. help for slinkwatch. it's giving "just tell me what to do" energy and honestly? valid 🙈
