Thanks,

two possible issues -

One, you must be root on most systems to see raw packets or to evenplace the interface into promiscuous mode.

Two, you can only look at one interface at a time.

But, yes, the $dev param can be set to any correct interface. As far as the detail of packets - how do you set the verbose-ness of the interface?
