*Network packet capture support*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    This option allows user to capture network packets.
    The captured packets are sent to another host for processing.
    User can use network packet analyzer like Wireshark to
    process the packets.
    The captured network packets are sent using IPIP tunnel
    as a payload in UDP datagrams.
