I'm sniffing with scapy 2.2 on Windows 7 with Python 2.6. Is there a way I can recognize the interface of a sniffed packet? I thought about using the mac address to identify it, but is there a way to do it with scapy?
something like this (doesn't work) -
packet = sniff(count=1, iface='eth0')[0]
print packet.iface # prints 'eth0'

Sniffing packets using scapy: To sniff the packets use the sniff() function. The sniff() function returns information about all the packets that has been sniffed. To see the summary of packet responses, use summary(). The sniff() function listens for an infinite period of time until the user interrupts.
The prn argument is defined as: prn: function to apply to each packet. If something is returned, it is displayed. For instance you can use prn = lambda x: x.
Scapy is a packet manipulation tool for computer networks, originally written in Python by Philippe Biondi. It can forge or decode packets, send them on the wire, capture them, and match requests and replies. It can also handle tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks, and network discovery.
In scapy, the interface-name the packet was captured on is stored in the property sniffed_on, for example:
packet.sniffed_on
