@aki, am not intending to go to the hard bits, all i want is to process the payload for "scapy" which is an elaborate module on packet processing and then have scapy deal with everything else on layer 2 and layer 3. Both tcpdump, scapy and the cousins pcapy and impacket all utilize the pcap library which is a "C" library and is well tuned.

in short am just using other peolple's work to pull this one.

@Joe, sorry me too, I was bit confused there. Btw, you have chosen a huge challenge with decoding the raw data. I just went through some old docs,  The Byte Offsets/Bit Offsets in the Ip Hreader are crazy. And you have to do the same for UDP. I see where @Jonas come up with the word thread. Seems socket programming is processor intensive. This is quite interesting, hope you don't mind if I follow as a spectator. :-)
