I am a new user to ethereal, and I don't quite know what I
am doing.
I have a Windows 2000 laptop, that I am trying to
use.
I downloaded three files.
ethereal-setup-0.10.0
WinPcap_3_01_a
GTK-Runtime-Environment-2.2.4.1
Another user told me that I don't need the GTK file to use
the program under windows. Is that true?
I have tried the program with the GTK installed, and not
installed, and neither seems to work correctly.
I am able to collect packets, but only ones that are
directed at my laptop. I don't seem to be able to collect the packets that
I think are going by my port. I have checked "Capture Packets in
Promiscuous Mode", but I only get my own, and broadcasts. I tested this by
going to a computer and pinging my computer, which showed the requests and
replies, but when I ping another computer, I don't see the icmp
protocol.
My ultimate goal of using ethereal is to use it to capture
ip telephony packets. I have a small demo ip phone system, which I am
trying to troubleshoot. It is a very simple setup with only a hub, and ip
telephone, my laptop, and the phone system lan card. I only capture
traffic off of the hub that is directed to my computer. I am not able to
see any packets for the ip phone.
If anyone had any suggestions, I would be thrilled to hear
them!
Eric
