Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] tcp added to text2pcap

Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.

From: Matthijs Melchior <mmelchior@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sat, 26 Apr 2003 18:01:35 +0200
Hi,
   here is a patch to text2pcap and its documentation.

It adds the following features:

-  option -m to set maximum packet length
-  option -T to generate TCP headers
-  UDP headers now have a correct checksum
-  default capture timestamp is current time, usec field counts packets
-  UDP and TCP headers are mutual exclusive
-  changed etherenet addresses, now sends from 1 -> 2 ....

?  I suspect the IP header checksum needs to avoid sending
  checksum 'none', just as the udp and tcp checksums do.
  Devising a test case for this is too difficult, so I
  have not changed that code...
  [if so, then 'in_checksum()' can be changed to do this]


I would like this to be included in the ethereal release,
although an incompatible change would be appreciated:
use -t for tcp headers and -T for timestamp format.


Thanks,
