Hi, I have to replace a piece of software that sniffs the traffic on one interface. It gets different messages that are each associated to a specific emitter. On the same machine, one server is started for each emitter (on a different port). And the application is just supposed to use the proper server to send the messages captured (to a client on another machine).
Not sure if it's clear, but basically if I have 2 emitters A and B, I'll start 2 servers (a and b). My sniffer will get messages A1, A2, B1, B2, B3... I have to pass messages A1, A2 to server a, that will just send them to the client (if it is connected of course). And B1, B2, B3 to server b. I don't need any buffering. If no client is connected, messages captured are just discarded. To sniff the network, I want to use pylibpcap or pcapy. I found this example to make it work with twisted: http://dound.com/2009/09/integrating-twisted-with-a-pcap-based-python-packet-sniffer/ Starting several servers that use the same protocol is not a problem. But how do I pass the messages captured to the right server? How do I make the link between the function sniffing the network and the servers?
