It connects to a LANZ streaming server, +listens for notifications, decodes them and sends the LANZ protobuf on the +provided channel. + +## monitor + +A library to help expose monitoring metrics on top of the +[`expvar`](https://golang.org/pkg/expvar/) infrastructure. + +## netns + +`netns.Do(namespace, cb)` provides a handy mechanism to execute the given +callback `cb` in the given [network namespace](https://lwn.net/Articles/580893/). + +## pathmap + +A datastructure for mapping keys of type string slice to values.
