NAME
       pcap_setfilter - set the filter

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pcap/pcap.h>

       int pcap_setfilter(pcap_t *p, struct bpf_program *fp);

DESCRIPTION
       pcap_setfilter() is used to specify a filter program.  fp is a pointer
       to a bpf_program struct, usually the result of a call to
       pcap_compile(3PCAP).

RETURN VALUE
       pcap_setfilter() returns 0 on success, PCAP_ERROR_NOT_ACTIVATED if
       called on a capture handle that has been created but not activated, or
       PCAP_ERROR on other errors.  If PCAP_ERROR is returned,
       pcap_geterr(3PCAP) or pcap_perror(3PCAP) may be called with p as an
       argument to fetch or display the error text.
