Hello, I want to read Ethernet packets with LabVIEW (an private protocol, not UDP or TCP or others). The hardware writes 40 000 packets per second. I want to use winPcap API to capture data. I’ve seen the example «packet_sniffer_project » (and others). It’s an great job. But the soft reads only 1 packet at each time (wrapper dll calls « pcap_next_ex » function) and I lose packets. With my computer, I read 25 000 packets per second. How can I read more than one packet at each time? (or all the Ethernet buffer)
You would need to modify the DLL to do that. An alternative would be to capture the data with another program and write it to a file which you can read in after the fact.
