Catch information about an incoming call

0

Hi guys, i'm develoing a software for my business and one of the features is to identify the incoming call, search in data base and show client's information.

Well, we're using a NEC Aspire central with 4 RDSI lines. Yesterday I shutted down all pc's and capture all traffic with Wireshark while I called myself (mobile phone to NEC Aspire), but apparently no information was captured when I pick up, hang or call... I've capture something but I think isn't from the NEC.

Another day I tried to write the rule "src 192.168.1.150" which is the NEC IP, and I capture information about the phone, time... ut I need real time, not just when call finished.

Yesterday I didn't capture even that information.

Any suggest?

Thank you buddies,

Adán

Hm... are you sure you want to do this with a sniffer?

NEC already offers that kind of software (PC Assistant) and I'm sure they also offer an API to get the required information about incoming calls much easier than extracting everything from a captured session.

Maybe I'm on the wrong track. If so, please update your question with more details.

Well, it's a great idea, I've seen NEC programas but they are just for clients, not developers. Maybe, looking his software and surfing the web I can get something about an API to get the information.

I'm trying this, if not get result, I repeat Wireshark testing because between NEC and my PC there is a switch, and it's possible I am not capturing the required information because NEC send different information per interface.

Thank you all,
