How send raw ethernet packet with C#?
Is there a way to send raw packet Ethernet to other host via C#? In Windows 7 if it makes difference.
Answer
Based on suggestion by Saint_pl:
I found probably better solution - similar to SharpPcap. It's Pcap.Net - .NET wrapper for WinPcap. Now I can modify my packets whatever I want.
I have some resources for you that maybe helpful. I don't try that solutions in Windows 7 but maybe it contains some good info to start.
Raw Ethernet Packet Manipulation or mirror on CodeProject
This purpose of this article is to explain how to send a raw Ethernet packet using C# on a Microsoft platform. A raw Ethernet packet is the complete Layer 2 network frame that is sent to the physical wire. Sending a frame like this allows you to manipulate the target and source MAC addresses and the Layer 3 protocol fields.
Also some info on raw sockets (just in case you interesting too):

- C# Raw Socket Ping Program Example part A | part B
- All examples
