Hello Guys,

I want to understand how libpcap identifies a particular data link layer?

Currently we are tapping IP interfaces using WireShark where there could be either HDLC or Transparent traffic without IP header attached to it.

Regards,

Gaurav

Please refer to http://www.tcpdump.org/ for questions regarding libpcap. Wireshark uses libpcap for capture on *some* platforms, not all. libpcap is not developed within the Wireshark project.

Regards, Peter
