Like many people here, i've used tcpdump (or libpcap) to write data acquisition gadgets that then report up to some higher tier. If you wanted to build one without doing all the messy libpcap and socket calls, you could chain tcpdump, a little awk, and nc (netcat) together. It wouldn't be incredibly robust but would fall together very quickly and would be a little more what you seem to have in mind. Sent from my iPhone - please excuse any typos.

Visit https://cod.sandelman.ca/ to unsubscribe.-- Thanks for your concern, but my requirement is to monitor the QoS parameters of a client interface. For this purpose I am capturing all the packets in the client using pcap and sending all the header part of the packets to the monitoring system for calculating the parameters and displaying it. I just wanted to know if there is any better method of doing this, or tcpdump provides any probes for capturing and sending all the information to a remote client.
