How to get raw ip packets without ip headers in esp32/lwip

Postby sibeg94414 » Wed Jun 21, 2023 3:34 pm

Hii all,

I am new to esp32 developement, i was trying out socket program to send raw ip packets,
the code for the same is

Code: Select all

    int sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_RAW);
    if (sock < 0)
    {
        ESP_LOGE(TAG, "Failed to create socket: %d", errno);
        vTaskDelete(NULL);
    }

    struct sockaddr_in dest_addr;
    memset(&dest_addr, 0, sizeof(dest_addr));
    dest_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;
    dest_addr.sin_port = 0;
    dest_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("0.0.0.0"); // Destination IP address

    // Raw data to be sent
    char buffer[] = "Hello, raw data!";

    // Send the raw data
    if (sendto(sock, buffer, sizeof(buffer), 0, (struct sockaddr *)&dest_addr, sizeof(dest_addr)) < 0)
    {
        ESP_LOGE(TAG, "Failed to send data: %d", errno);
        close(sock);
        vTaskDelete(NULL);
    }
but while i receiving the packets on wireshark, it adds ip header, how to send only the raw packets without ip header, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

What do you mean by "send an IP packet without an IP header"?

My bad for phrasing it wrong, I want to send raw packets, but while sending the raw packets, the ip headers are automatically added which i don't want. How to just send the raw socket ?

Thank you

Is esp_wifi_80211_tx(...) what you're looking for?
