Hello all.

How are you?

Maybe someone has a good idea how to solve the following request:
I am searching for a way to trace network traffic (e.g. with ethereal) and if a certain packet arrives, an action should be performed automatically.

for example:
If any IPX frame is seen, a script/command should be executed automatically, e.g. to send a SMB message popup or a snmp trap.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
