Libpcap 1.0 has code to configure monitor mode in Linux, *BSD, and Mac OS X (and tcpdump 4.0 has a "-I" command-line flag to enable monitor mode); the Linux code needs some work to handle mac80211 adapters better (I have some as-yet-untested code for that). I also have some under-development work on giving libpcap APIs to get a list of channels, and let you set the channel, for 802.11. I haven't had time to work on it - I need to come up with a representation of the list of channels information that works on multiple platforms and provides enough information. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
