[Labrea-users] log format question

[Paul W. <pw...@nc...>]

I am experimenting with labrea on a FreeBSD 4.9 box using it to tarpit 
an empty /17.  I haven't been able to make the perl tarpit reporting 
tools operate in a reliable manner with the extreme amount of activity 
this box is handling (I am quite impressed with how well LaBrea works:  
4Mb/s of traffic and climbing).

I am working on my own reporting tools and have come across a couple 
questions about the logs.
What does the * represent at the end of some entries?
What is the significance of the 'Linux persist activity' log statement?
Does the 'Capturing local ip' refer to LaBrea tarpitting a scan to that 
local ip address?
What is the difference between 'Additional activity' and 'Persist 
Activity'

Thank you,
