pcap-ct 1.3.0b3

About original PyPCAP:

Borrowed from the original website:

PyPCAP

This is a simplified object-oriented Python wrapper for libpcap - the current tcpdump.org version, and the WinPcap port for Windows.

Example use #1:

>>> import pcap
>>> sniffer = pcap.pcap(name=None, promisc=True, immediate=True, timeout_ms=50)
>>> addr = lambda pkt, offset: '.'.join(str(ord(pkt[i])) for i in range(offset, offset + 4))
>>> for ts, pkt in sniffer:
...     print('%d\tSRC %-16s\tDST %-16s' % (ts, addr(pkt, sniffer.dloff + 12), addr(pkt, sniffer.dloff + 16)))
...

Example use #2:

Listing Interfaces

>>> import pcap
>>> print ("Interfaces:\n" + '\n'.join(pcap.findalldevs()))

Windows notes

WinPcap has compatibility issues with Windows 10, therefore it’s recommended to use Npcap (Nmap’s packet sniffing library for Windows, based on the WinPcap/Libpcap libraries, but with improved speed, portability, security, and efficiency). Please enable WinPcap API-compatible mode during the library installation.
