PCap Ethernet Receiver

Note
The PCap Ethernet Receiver uses libpcap to capture raw ethernet frames in promiscious mode. Due to licensing issues the pcap library is not part of the Device Toolbox - to be able to use the streaming source make sure that libpcap is installed on your system. On Linux this is usually a matter of installing the libpcap package provided by your distribution.

Windows users can choose from a number of PCap implementations such as npcap, winpcap or win10pcap. With Wireshark installed and working on your Windows system there is a good chance that the PCap Ethernet Receiver will work, too.
