This is not necessarily the type +of link-layer header that the packets being captured have on the network +from which they're being captured; for example, packets from an IEEE +802.11 network might be provided by libpcap with Ethernet headers that +the network adapter or the network adapter driver generates from the +802.11 headers. The names for those values begin with +.BR DLT_ , +so they are sometimes called "DLT_ values". +.PP +The values stored in the link-layer header type field in the savefile +header are, in most but not all cases, the same as the values returned +by +.BR pcap_datalink() . +The names for those values begin with +.BR LINKTYPE_ . +.PP +The link-layer header types supported by libpcap are described at +https://www.tcpdump.org/linktypes.html. +.SH SEE ALSO +pcap(3PCAP) |
