I think you'll find that you do indeed need libpcap...  Take a look at 
the libpcap page -

libpcap is a system-independent interface for user-level packet capture. 
libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network monitoring. 
Applications include network statistics collection, security monitoring, 
network debugging, etc.
