NOTE: Packets routed through GREtunnels on an ExtremeAnalytics virtual engine are
incorrectly reported as dropped in the ifconfig output on the GREinterface. This
scenario was tested and while these packets are reported as dropped, they are
being inspected by the ExtremeAnalytics engine.

Sensor Modules
The ExtremeAnalytics sensor uses sensor modules to analyze different types of
network traffic. For example, the HTTP decoder decodes HTTP traffic to acquire
data needed to match fingerprints against that traffic.
In most cases, it is best to leave the decoders and detectors enabled. For better
sensor performance, you can disable decoders for traffic rarely seen on the
network; however, doing so prevents some fingerprints from triggering.
You can enable logging for any of the decoders and detectors for debugging
purposes. As logging can impact disk space and performance, turn it on only for
troubleshooting purposes. Do not enable logging during normal operation.
