[Winpcap-users] Question about Filter

Please use some parentheses like this

(tcp and ip src host 192.168.1.1) || (tcp and ip dst host 192.168.1.1)

The "and" and "or" operator have equal precedence in the bpf filtering language.

Have a nice day

  Subject: [Winpcap-users] Question about Filter


  Hi, I want to configure winpcap to only capture the packets between two machines, 
  with IP addresses, for example, 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2

  Winpcap is installed on machine 192.168.1.2, the filter string I used is
  "tcp and ip src host 192.168.1.1 || tcp and ip dst host 192.168.1.1"

  But it seems that I only got packets sent from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.1, that is, 
  only the outcoming packets. The part of the filter string before "||" seems to be ignored. 
  Is there anything wrong with this filter string, and how can I change it? Thanks!

  Zhiyuan
