would like to send raw ethernet frames

Hi,

as part of a test tool I need to send ethernet frames per my specification.
Preferably I’d like to do something like:

open NIC
set destination MAC
fill in datafield with my stuff
send packet (have NIC calculate CRC)
close NIC

This would happen from a regular application, I’m not looking to write a
driver. If I understand it correctly that takes NDIS out. Winsock 2 seems to
have some ‘raw’ ability but I’m having a hard time finding documentation on
this.

I searched the archives but because of the emphasis on driver development I
didn’t really see anything appropriate.

Could someone please point me in the right direction? What API do I use?

Thanks,

Sander
