Monitoring Network traffic in Windows Mobile 6.5 using C#?

Question

I need to monitor Network Traffic of every application used in Windows Mobile 6.5 device using c#.

I really don't know where to start and how to start.

After searching in google, i found Netlog can be helpful for this scenario.

Any Ideas?

Please suggest me.

Thanks,

Balu

Yes netlog is an example provided within Windows CE Platformbuilder.

When you look at the source code, you will see that netlog is a 'driver' DLL and netlogctl is used to control the DLL.

I fear that architecture is not to be re-build using C#. You cannot write native driver DLLs using C#.

BUT, you can also use iphlpapi, see my netstat example: http://www.hjgode.de/wp/2013/09/24/mobile-development-netstat-know-your-devices-open-ports/.

You get an overall stat:
