Description (last modified by aturner) (diff)

tcpreplay fails to send packets over a slip interface in windows (win2k in my case). 

e.g. $ tcpreplay.exe -i %1 wrong_icmp_checksum.cap
sending out \Device\NPF_{D01DAB11-D2EE-4A48-AEDF-A81B5357BD56}
processing file: wrong_icmp_checksum.cap
Warning in send_packets.c:send_packets() line 175:
Unable to send packet: Error with PF_PACKET send() [1]: send error: PacketSendPacket failed (errno = 2)
Actual: 1 packets (74 bytes) sent in 0.32 seconds
Rated: 2312.5 bps, 0.02 Mbps/sec, 31.25 pps

Statistics for network device: \Device\NPF_{D01DAB
        Attempted packets:         1
        Successful packets:        0
        Failed packets:            1
        Retried packets (ENOBUFS): 0
        Retried packets (EAGAIN):  0

(PF_PACKET is just a cosmetic bug in the pre-release, the errno=2 is not)

Unfortunately, this is a known limitation of Winpcap- it doesn't support injecting on WAN interfaces like PPP or SLIP. There does not appear to be a workaround.
