The formats allowed by the pcap_open() are the following:
- file://path_and_filename [opens a local file]
- rpcap://devicename [opens the selected device devices available on the local host, without using the RPCAP protocol]
- rpcap://host/devicename [opens the selected device available on a remote host]
- rpcap://host:port/devicename [opens the selected device available on a remote host, using a non-standard port for RPCAP]
- adaptername [to open a local adapter; kept for compability, but it is strongly discouraged]
- (NULL) [to open the first local adapter; kept for compability, but it is strongly discouraged]
The formats allowed by the pcap_findalldevs_ex() are the following:
- file://folder/ [lists all the files in the given folder]
- rpcap:// [lists all local adapters]
- rpcap://host:port/ [lists the devices available on a remote host]
Referring to the 'host' and 'port' paramters, they can be either numeric or literal. Since
IPv6 is fully supported, these are the allowed formats:
- host (literal): e.g. host.foo.bar
- host (numeric IPv4): e.g. 10.11.12.13
- host (numeric IPv4, IPv6 style): e.g. [10.11.12.13]
- host (numeric IPv6): e.g. [1:2:3::4]
- port: can be either numeric (e.g. '80') or literal (e.g. 'http')
Here you find some allowed examples:
- rpcap://host.foo.bar/devicename [everything literal, no port number]
- rpcap://host.foo.bar:1234/devicename [everything literal, with port number]
- rpcap://10.11.12.13/devicename [IPv4 numeric, no port number]
- rpcap://10.11.12.13:1234/devicename [IPv4 numeric, with port number]
- rpcap://[10.11.12.13]:1234/devicename [IPv4 numeric with IPv6 format, with port number]
- rpcap://[1:2:3::4]/devicename [IPv6 numeric, no port number]
- rpcap://[1:2:3::4]:1234/devicename [IPv6 numeric, with port number]
- rpcap://[1:2:3::4]:http/devicename [IPv6 numeric, with literal port number]

\brief Defines if the adapter has to go in promiscuous mode.
It is '1' if you have to open the adapter in promiscuous mode, '0' otherwise.
Note that even if this parameter is false, the interface could well be in promiscuous
mode for some other reason (for example because another capture process with
promiscuous mode enabled is currently using that interface).
On on Linux systems with 2.2 or later kernels (that have the "any" device), this
flag does not work on the "any" device; if an argument of "any" is supplied,
the 'promisc' flag is ignored.

\brief Defines if the data trasfer (in case of a remote
capture) has to be done with UDP protocol.
If it is '1' if you want a UDP data connection, '0' if you want
a TCP data connection; control connection is always TCP-based.
A UDP connection is much lighter, but it does not guarantee that all
the captured packets arrive to the client workstation. Moreover,
it could be harmful in case of network congestion.
This flag is meaningless if the source is not a remote interface.
In that case, it is simply ignored.

\brief Defines if the remote probe will capture its own generated traffic.
In case the remote probe uses the same interface to capture traffic and to send
data back to the caller, the captured traffic includes the RPCAP traffic as well.
If this flag is turned on, the RPCAP traffic is excluded from the capture, so that
the trace returned back to the collector is does not include this traffic.

/*!
\brief This flag configures the adapter for maximum responsiveness.
In presence of a large value for nbytes, WinPcap waits for the arrival of several packets before
copying the data to the user. This guarantees a low number of system calls, i.e. lower processor usage,
i.e. better performance, which is good for applications like sniffers. If the user sets the
PCAP_OPENFLAG_MAX_RESPONSIVENESS flag, the capture driver will copy the packets as soon as the application
is ready to receive them. This is suggested for real time applications (like, for example, a bridge)
that need the best responsiveness.*/
