Hi,

            Does tcpdump occasionally not register a tcp segment (under heavy traffic)?  I am trying to figure out a way to reconstruct the application level data(payload) from tcp streams. I will be writing my own code for this and will be using and getting some help from ethereal open source.

 

Please let me know about this behaviour and if there are any alternatives for proper TCP segment reconstruction/reassembly.

 

Thanks,

S.Srivathsan
