some comments.. 1/ it may be more useful to not make any distinction between 'in' and 'out' hooks but just have connections.. The hooks could be given purely arbitrary names e.g. "source1" and "suspicious" a hook could be configured as being 'read-only' by command rather than by special name..

Hello, I tweaked a little the one2many node to realize some different kind of packet switching node. I needed something that would help me to split over different IDS sensors data coming from span/mirroring session done on the network. At first I tried to glue some bpf nodes but I had no luck s
