boblikeperl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Does anyone have an example of reading/writing to ethernet devices for Win32 and Linux? I've seen blurbs about Net::Ethernet, NET::PCap, NET::PcapUtils..... I don't understand how they all work together.
I need to do the same thing tcpdump (Linux) and Ethereal do, read information from an ethernet port and display/modify the data. I need to write an application and not use Ethereal. We will be modifying the TCP/IP data and send it to the hardware we are producing. The ethernet data may be from FTP, TCP/IP, DNS, NTP or any other socket/port combo. I don't want to write a socket app for each combo. Is this clearer?
