Efficient packet capture on Windows CE

Embedded gateway and embedded firewall are implemented in network measurement and monitoring system more and more due to the explosive growth of Internet, and so the requirement of packet capture and analysis in embedded system has become popularity. In this paper, we introduce and compare the methods of packet capture on Windows CE, and adopt the NDIS intermediate driver to capture network packet at last. Furthermore, we discuss the detailed development procedure of NDIS programs, and then evaluate the performance of network packet capture using a combination of analysis and experiments.
