To accommodate support for the radiotap and prism headers in PCAP traces, the interface for promiscuos mode sniff in the wifi device was changed. The new implementation was heavily inspired by the way the madwifi driver handles monitor mode. A distinction between TX and RX events is introduced, to account for the fact that different information is to be put in the radiotap/prism header (e.g., RSSI and noise make sense only for RX packets). The following are the relevant modifications to the WifiPhy class:
<pre>
-- void NotifyPromiscSniff (Ptr<const Packet> packet);
-+ void NotifyPromiscSniffRx (Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble, double signalDbm, double noiseDbm);
-+ void NotifyPromiscSniffTx (Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble);
-- TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet> > m_phyPromiscSnifferTrace;
-+ TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet>, uint16_t, uint32_t, bool, double, double> m_phyPromiscSniffRxTrace;
-+ TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet>, uint16_t, uint32_t, bool> m_phyPromiscSniffTxTrace;
+- void NotifyPromiscSniff (Ptr<const Packet> packet);
++ void NotifyPromiscSniffRx (Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble, double signalDbm, double noiseDbm);
++ void NotifyPromiscSniffTx (Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble);
+- TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet> > m_phyPromiscSnifferTrace;
++ TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet>, uint16_t, uint32_t, bool, double, double> m_phyPromiscSniffRxTrace;
++ TracedCallback<Ptr<const Packet>, uint16_t, uint32_t, bool> m_phyPromiscSniffTxTrace;
</pre>
The above mentioned callbacks are expected to be used to call the following method to write Wifi PCAP traces in promiscuous mode:
<pre>
-+ void WriteWifiMonitorPacket(Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble, bool isTx, double signalDbm, double noiseDbm);
++ void WriteWifiMonitorPacket(Ptr<const Packet> packet, uint16_t channelFreqMhz, uint32_t rate, bool isShortPreamble, bool isTx, double signalDbm, double noiseDbm);
</pre>
In the above method, the isTx parameter is to be used to differentiate between TX and RX packets. For an example of how to implement these callbacks, see the implementation of PcapSniffTxEvent and PcapSniffRxEvent in src/helper/yans-wifi-helper.cc
