Oakrey.Network.PacketCapture.Device

Overview

Overview of the "WindowCaptureDevice" Project The "WindowCaptureDevice" project is a .NET 8 library that extends the functionality of the "PacketCapture.Wrapper" project to provide a higher-level abstraction for managing live packet capture devices on Windows. It integrates with native packet capture libraries and offers advanced features for device configuration, packet transmission, and queue management.

Features

Device Management:

The WindowCaptureDevice class provides methods to open and configure live capture devices with options like kernel buffer size and minimum data size to copy.

Packet Transmission:

Supports sending entire queues of packets using the SendWholeQueue method with configurable transmission modes.

Device Configuration:

Allows setting kernel buffer size and other device-specific parameters for optimized performance.

Integration with Native Libraries:

Leverages the "PacketCapture.Wrapper" project for low-level operations, such as setting kernel buffer size and managing device handles.

Extensibility:

Inherits from CaptureLiveDevice, enabling further customization and extension for live capture scenarios.

Error Handling:

Provides robust error handling with descriptive exceptions for invalid operations, such as attempting to configure a device that is not open.
