Forum Topic - Raw Ethernet packet send/receive functions: (2 Items)
   
Raw Ethernet packet send/receive functions  
We need to implement some proprietary communications across QNX targets and we want the capacity to build, send and 
receive raw Ethernet packets on QNX 6.3.2.

We have learned that Berkley Packet Filter (BPF) and the pcap library are supposed to enable our objectives, but we 
cannot find usage documentation for these libraries on QNX.

Are there other ways?

Thank you,

With 6.3.2 there was 'nraw'.  Contact your sales representative
for more info.  pcap and bpf are supported in 6.4.
