kStatus kPacketSocket_Construct	(	kPacketSocket *	sockt,
		const kChar *	adapterName,
		k16u *	protocols,
		kSize	protocolCount,
		kAlloc	allocator
	)

Constructs a kPacketSocket object (non-promiscuous mode).

You can specify that only a specific ethernet type is received by using the protocol parameter. To receive all ethernet traffic set protocol to 0. For list of protocol types see http://standards-oui.ieee.org/ethertype/eth.txt

Parameters

sockt	Destination for the constructed object handle.
adapterName	Adapter name (e.g. "eth0", "Local Area Network").
protocols	Protocols, e.g. 0x8892 for Profibus or 0x0800 for IP.
protocolCount	Number of protocols
allocator	Memory allocator (or kNULL for default).
