Data Format 

Description 

flags: 

This byte is divided into 2 parts, the interface 

identifier, and the capture offset. 

 

1-0: capture interface 0-3 

2: varying record lengths present 

3: truncated record [insufficient buffer space] 

4: rx error [link error] 

5: 5: ds error [internal error] 

7-6: reserved 

 

Rlen: record length 

Total length of the record transferred over PCI 

bus to storage. 

 

Lctr: 

loss counter 

A 16 bit counter, recording the number of 

packets lost since the previous record.  Records 

can be lost between the DAG card and memory 

hole due to overloading on PCI bus.  The 

counter starts at zero, and sticks at 0xffff. 

 

Wlen: 

wire length 

Packet length including some protocol overhead.  

The exact interpretation of this quantity depends 

on physical medium. 

 

offset: 

Number of bytes *not* captured from start of 

frame.  

 

Typically used to skip link layer headers when 

not required in order to save bandwidth and 

space. 

 

This field is currently not implemented, contents 

can be disregarded.
