My understanding is that nvsniffer performs a raw port checking on tcp
ports. Sometimes this is not enough to determine if an application is
actually behaving properly. Does nvsniffer provide any modules to check at
the application level? For example for port 53: first do a raw check on the
port and if the answer is good, do an nslookup on some address or so. Do I
have to write my own module to do this?

Thanks for any information.
