Linux Installation
==================
Applications that use raw Ethernet device discovery, such as PCAP-backed
discovery, need permission to open raw network sockets. Instead of running your
application with ``sudo``, grant the installed executable the required Linux
capabilities:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo setcap cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin=eip /usr/bin/your-app
Replace ``/usr/bin/your-app`` with the full path to the application executable.
