To get those fields out of the raw packet data, you have to implement some decoding of the packets. Socket Sentry does this based loosely on code from tcpdump. (See DataLinkPacketDecoder and its subclasses as well as the InternetProtocolDecoder class.) Alternatively, you could just use tcpdump. ;-) - This is the tcpdump-workers list.
