All broctl(8) commands must be run as root.
Post-install steps
==================
Configuration
-------------
Before starting bro(8) for the first time, the "interface" must be properly
configured under:
${SYSCONFDIR}/bro/node.cfg
Deployment
----------
Then the configuration must be deployed as follow:
ulimit -n 512; broctl deploy
File descriptors limit
======================
Both bro(8) and broctl(8) need to bump their nofile limits.

------
The following lines can be added to login.conf(5):
bro:\
:openfiles-cur=1024:\
:tc=daemon:
Then the login.conf.db can be rebuilt file if necessary:
[ -f /etc/login.conf.db ] && cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf
broctl(8)
---------
"ulimit -n 512" can be prepended to the command (like above).
