Meaning, they need access to the "raw" data on the network without the need for protocol processing by the operating system. This deficiency is due to some applications requiring direct access to packets on the network. But, sometimes, the so-called 'easy way' is not up to the task at hand. These type of options allow an easy way to access network data. It can also be used in conjunction with network intrusion detection systems like Suricata or other types of security tools.Ī majority of networking applications access the network via widely used operating system options like sockets for instance.
The current 4.1.2 package is compatible with WinPcap 4.1.3. NOTE: there is no Developers package specific for WinPcap 4.1.3.
It will provide you with direct packet access including the ability to create a separate connection to raw network data for network/protocol analyzers, network monitors/scanners, traffic loggers and generators as well as user-level bridges and routers. download the ZIP archive containing the developers pack. WinPcap is designed to capture/transmit packets specifically by network protocol bypassing.
