Service Virtualization

  • 1.  ICMP packets

    Posted Sep 07, 2017 02:00 PM

    Hello, Everyone. 

    Running Devtest 9.1.

    Is there a way to extract ICMP Ping packets from PCAP file, or record them?

    We are looking to help virtualize pings and dialog to devices.

    Thanks!

    The DevTest Create New VS Image From PCAP feature only works with HTTP requests so that feature is probably not going to help.  As far as I know, ICMP is slightly different from TCP so I am not sure the OOTB TCP protocol handler can record or play back a ping. You might be able to do this with a Custom Transport Protocol Handler.

    Thank you, Joel.

    Much appreciated.

    This corresponds to what I know but thought I'd put the question out there.
