Re: how to capture tinyos packets with wireshark?

[Hamidreza Ghafghazi <hamidreza.ghafghazi () fkegraduate utm my>]

dear sake,

Actually TinyOS is an OS for Sensor motes and communicate via wireless link
which the protocol is 802.15.4
In addition, nodes should be connected to PC with USB port but the problem
is Wireshark cannot detect it since it uses different packet format.
I have search a lot and have found out that I need to use socket programming
to connect TinyOS to a socket and then to Wireshark.If you have any idea I
will appreciate any help.

Thank you in advanced for your time

Best regard,

Hamidreza
