Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] How to add a new capture type ?

[<wuwei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"Windows packet capture library" is used to capture the packet automatically. But I want to change this type of capture.

The packet will be broadcasted to me from another machine. And I have finished the dissector for such packet.

Then how can ethereal get the packet which broadcasted from another machine to dissect。

(I will add a submodule to listen the broadcasting, but how to set the linking between ethereal and this submodule).

 

Can any nice guy give me some idea?   Greatest appreciate!
