Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] tcp added to text2pcap

Hi, here is a patch to text2pcap and its documentation. It adds the following features: - option -m to set maximum packet length - option -T to generate TCP headers - UDP headers now have a correct checksum - default capture timestamp is current time, usec field counts packets - UDP and TCP headers are mutual exclusive - changed etherenet addresses, now sends from 1 -> 2 .... ? I suspect the IP header checksum needs to avoid sending checksum 'none', just as the udp and tcp checksums do. Devising a test case for this is too difficult, so I have not changed that code... [if so, then 'in_checksum()' can be changed to do this] I would like this to be included in the ethereal release, although an incompatible change would be appreciated: use -t for tcp headers and -T for timestamp format. Thanks, -- Regards, ---------------------------------------------------------------- -o) Matthijs Melchior Maarssen /\\ mmelchior@xxxxxxxxx Netherlands _\_v ---------------------------------------------------------------- ----
