C code to change destination address field in a packet

view full story
linux-howto

http://stackoverflow.com – I have a C program to capture packets transmitted on an interface. It prints the various fields of the captured packet like the protocol, destination address etc. Now, I need to change the destination address of all these packets, so as to give it a different route for transmission. I am working on Linux OS and thus using libpcap for packet-capturing. So, a C function/code to do serve this purpose is what I am looking for. Tcprewrite is a command which does this; but I need to code this in C instead of using the command. Any help would be highly appreciated. (HowTos)

Stories similar to C code to change destination address field in a packet

Can a limited broadcast contain destination MAC address other than FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF?

If the answer is true, could you provide an example of a protocol that uses a packet like this.

Ok, to elaborate on this a little further and to show what I think of it:

Lets suppose we are sending an IP packet that is a limited broadcast packet.

changing destination address 2 years 28 weeks ago

Hi all,

I have a sender with a single interface and a client with two interface(one wifi and one wired). They are connected via a router.

Sender(10.0.0.2) ------------------Receiver(10.0.0.7)and(10.0.0.8)

At the server I am copying every packet to userspace using iptable and libipq. Now depending on some criteria, I want to change the destination address of the packet, i.e.

iptable forward packet 1 year 14 weeks ago

Hi, I have the doubt which involved following configuration. comp1<--->main<--->comp2 Comp1 sends icmp packet to main. Main takes that packet and changes destination address to comp2 and source address to it own. I can capture the packet send from comp1 to main using netfilter. I can see the packet and its content.

we currently have 2 old Linux servers running iptables that we're switching to a Cisco 2901 router. Since iptables and NAT on a Cisco device work differently, I'm not sure how to set up NAT on the Cisco device.

We have a rule in iptables that translates and forwards a packet based on its source and destination address.

Simple network config:

10.0.0.0/24 - rl1 interface DHCP from ISP - rl0 interface (NAT)

Using FreeBSD's packet filter (PF) with standard configuration for NAT.

I need to configure PF, so when users from inside network connect to external IP address of rl0 - they will be redirected to an inside address (10.0.0.254).

Please help.
