WinPcap Do’s and Don’ts provides tips for properly using the WinPcap packet capture library. It advises to not keep packet pointers after a call to retrieve packets, as they are only valid temporarily. It also warns to check packet lengths and header sizes, as truncation can occur. Additional tips include using pcap_next_ex for packet retrieval, being aware of timestamp precision limitations, balancing responsiveness and performance, and running WinPcap with appropriate privileges. The document provides best practices and common pitfalls to avoid when working with live packet capture on Windows systems.
