Python 数据包嗅探器

Question

What Python module should I be using to sniff packets? I don't need anything too complex, I just need to get the data out of some packets being sent to my computer. I am using Python 2.6 and Windows 7, and I have installed WinPcap 4.1.2.

So far I've seen people suggest pcapy and pypcap, but when I try to install those, they both fail and tell me I am missing msvcr71.dll even though it is on my computer. Also, the python-libpcap sourceforge page seems to be unavailable, so I can't try that.

Answer 1

py-pcap from dirtbags.net doesn't depend on a pcap lib so it might work for you. Though, I'm not sure how fast it is or if it works on windows.

Answer 2

Obviously you want to use a ready-made wrapper, but keep in mind that you can always use Ctypes to directly access the capture functions.

See: http://www.python.org/doc/current/library/ctypes.html

Hope this helps
