Perfmonitor / BPF Question

["Rob Sharp" <robertsharp () gmail com>]

I have a sensor deployed with a BPF file to filter out our network
vulnerability scanners to keep the noise down.  I notice when the scanner
makes  a sweep that the dropped packets increase quite a bit.

My question is does the perfmonitor count packets dropped by the BPF in the
stats it tracks?  That would explain the jumps in packet loss.
