<STRONG>Note:</STRONG> This document is part of the libpcap Git and was derived from 'pcap.3' (circa Aug/07).

<P>
|
|
The ACN provides a customized/distributed version of this library that alows SMPs to
|
|
interact with the various IOPs within the site providing a standard mechanism
|
|
to capture LAN and WAN message traffic.

Each IOP will be capable of supporting multiple connections from an SMP
|
|
enabling monitoring of more than one interface at a time, each through
|
|
its own seperate connection. The IOP is responsible to ensure and report
|
|
an error if any attempt is made to monitor the same interface more than once.
|
|
<P>
|
|
There are three applications that will be supported by the ACN version of libpcap.
|
|
They each use a slightly different mode for looping/capturing and termination
|
|
as summarized in the following table:

pcap_close(). Pcap_breakloop() is only used to stop/suspend looping/processing,

and upon close interpretation of the function definitions, it is possible to resume

capturing following a pcap_breakloop() without any re-initialization.

The following list of functions is the sub-set of Pcap functions that have been
|
|
altered/enhanced to support the ACN remote monitoring facility. The remainder of the Pcap
|
|
functions continue to perform their duties un-altered. Libpcap only supports this
|
|
mode of operation if it has been configured/compiled for SITA/ACN support.

<H3>Packet Trace Data Format</H3>

The format of the trace data that is sent to the SMP follows a portion of the libpcap file format

and is summarized here. This format specifies the generic requirements needed to

be able to decode packets, but does not cover ACN specifics such as custom MAC addressing
|
|
and WAN protocol support.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
Although a libpcap file begins with a global header followed by zero or
|
|
more records for each captured packet, trace data sent to the SMP does NOT begin with a global header.
|

A trace sequence looks like this:

PCAP, Wireshark and Tcpdump enhancements have been added to the ACN to support
|
|
monitoring of its ports, however each of these facilities were focused on capturing
|
|
and displaying traffic from LAN interfaces. The SITA extentions to these facilities
|
|
are used to also provide the ability to capture, filter, and display information from
|
|
an ACN's WAN ports.
|

<P>
|

Although each packet follows the standard libpcap format, since there are
|

two types of interfaces that can be monitored, the format of the data

packet varies slightly.
