Jpcap , How to extract data from OLSR?

3 New Member
hi,
I am using jpcap to capture OLSR topology control (udp) packets.

Does anyone know how to extract data (the way ethereal does it) from the olsr packet?

There are methods to extract data from udp and IP packets in jpcap but the issue is that olsr packets have their own header-data and since jpcap can not dig that far, I get nonsense as packet data.

1. Am I right to assume that jpcap can not dig to the data part of the packet content when olsr is the routing protocol?
2. Is there anyway to extract actual packet data from the olsr packet?
3. Is this true that if ethereal can do it, I should be able to do it with Jpcap too?

Much thanks.

Ok, I figured it out. In order to read a packet you should learn what each byte means. To do so, you need to first get the packet header and data in binray form, then convert then to readable characters. Then by try and error or a comparison with ethereal output, you'll eventually learn what each byte means, hence you'll know how to interpret each packet.

Please feel free to contact me if you need specifics and/or example.

Hi, I have an unusual problem that just showed its ugly head at a pretty bad time. I have an asp.net (VB) app that takes data from an Excel sheet and puts it into SQL Server. I get the data out of Excel using OleDB, and suddenly, some of the data was not being extracted from Excel. I use OleDb for the extract into a DataTable and from there an SqlClient.SqlCommand to put it into SQL Server.
