Re: two Ethernet cards

I'm not sure the cards would have IP addresses.

I want to capture all the packets in promiscuous mode
from each card. Do I just give them random IPs?

Is there any way to handle two Ethernet cards in VC++?

I want to write a program that reads a packet from one, delays 250ms,
and spits the packet out the other.


After creating a socket you can specify which card to use (by IP) in the
call to bind. (Or, in MFC, the last argument of CAsyncSocket::Create()).
