Hi,
I am current working on Ethernet protocol. Do anyone know any software tool for sending and receiving Ethernet frames? For example: If i send ethernet frame from my custom FPGA Board to my PC, i must be able see the frame contents and similarly create a frame and send it to my custom FPGA Board. This will help debugging my Ethernet design. Thanks, Nandish JasaniLink Copied

For monitoring Ethernet frames you can simply use sw tools like Ethereal or Wireshark.
If you also want to build custom ethernet frames I think you need to do some coding; I don't know any ready made tool. Look at www.winpcap.org for a widely used free-source packet management library.- Mark as New

What OS are you using? There are some packet generators out there, check out:
