Hi,
isn't it true that packet is timestamped/captured when it
comes to the machine on which a packet sniffer is installed?
So, if the desired destination and the machine on which the
sniffer is installed is not the same,
then the time stamp on the packet may not be same as
the timestamp at the desired destination's machine.
e.g.
So, if machine A records a network traffic, then time stamp on
a packet, sent by some X within network to other server S
outside network, as captured/recorded by machine A, is what
timestamp? What time will it signify?
Q2. Is there any way of knowing the timestamp of the packet at
the source?
i.e., is it possible to know the time at which a particular
packet left the source machine?
