Packet capture (use PcapPlusPlus in Rust?)
Hey, I'm looking for the best way to do packet capture in Rust. I've looked at both libpnet and pcap crates, and they both seem way less mature and with less functionality than the PcapPlusPlus library, which seems to be the golden suite of packet capture and manipulation.

Cannot read packets from tun interface using libpnet
I've also had issues with the pnet crate, I ended up using pcap to do the capturing and transmitting instead, while still using the parsing/construction utilities provided by pnet

Help with packet sniffing and parsing in rust
I can not find, the original project, or example, so here is mine: https://github.com/sleepy771/rustacap/blob/master/src/main.rs (it probably does not work, because each of the libraries used has evovlved). Basically it caputred packets on interface using pcap (libpcap) and then parsed them using nom.

Tool that exports wifi information?
If you are willing to put in some work, you can capture beacon frames ib realtine with https://github.com/ebfull/pcap .

Getting into network programming with Rust, can I listen to incoming connections on a port that another application(Nodejs server) is using?
You should be able to use https://github.com/ebfull/pcap to do that
