Use BPF filter from file.
.. option:: -r <path>
Run in pcap offline mode reading files from pcap file.
.. option:: -q <queue id>
Run inline of the NFQUEUE queue ID provided. May be provided
multiple times.
.. option:: -s <path>
Path to a signature file to load. Will be loaded in addition to the

.. option:: --dump-config
Dump the configuration loaded from the configuration file to the
terminal and exit.
.. option:: --build-info
Display the build information the Suricata was built with.

Run in PCAP mode. If no device is provided the interfaces
provided in the *pcap* section of the configuration file will be
used.
.. option:: --pcap-buffer-size=<size>
Set the size of the PCAP buffer (0 - 2147483647).
