Hi! I just realized a bug/feature of pcap that I didnīt think of. I wrote a sniffer based on pcap. This sniffer can handle fragmented IP packets. Now I realized that if you set up a filter with a UDP or TCP port, you will not get the additional fragments, because in these packets there are no UDP/TCP headers present from which you can get a port number. So I want to ask if it is possible to modify pcap behaviour and where to start. You can tell that a packet should be passed up if the ID in the IP header matches, the problem of course is if a fragment arrives before the first packet. I would prefer a modification in pcap, instead of the sniffer, regarding performance.
