Influence of pcap_open_live parameters on pcap_sendpacket

[Doktor Bernd <doktorbernd () hotmail com>]

Hi,
 
I am trying to optimize my program by adjusting the parameters of pcap_open_live().
 
In my program, I am opening the same interface twice and use one handle in a thread for capturing packets and the other 
handle in a second thread for writing
 
Two questions:
- Do the two pcap_open_live() calls influence the hardware in anyway and have side effects on each other or are they 
bound to the handle and I can rely on the parameters I give to be set?
- Do the parameters influence pcap_sendpacket() in any way? From the documentation I assume that they are only for 
capturing from that interface.
 
All the best,
Bernd                                     -
