 Ethereal will help me to see packet details enterine the PC, not the packets entering the nios board.I want to see the packets entering the nios board by using the functions and data structures provided by nios development kit. I am not getting any idea of which driver to initialize and which structure variables to access, so that i get information of the source address, dest address,port numbers of the packet

So this means either booting uClinux, implementing a tcp/ip stack such as lwip, or writing your own code. There is no "driver that you can initialize", it&#39;s not that simple.
