Hi,
If
I use tcpdump or tshark to capture packets on a certain interface, will it
interfere with another program that is also receiving packets on that
interface?
For
example, I have a program that receives traffic from eth0, processes
it, then forwards the traffic out to another server via eth1. If I were
to run tcpdump or tshark (-i eth0) and write the packets to a file, will these
packets still be received by my program? The reason I'm running tcpdump/tshark
is to check if there is any dropped packet on that interface, but I
don't want it to affect the processing of the traffic.
Thank you.
Regards,
Rayne
