Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] test: vary size of packets in pcapng test
Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2025 10:12:50 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251112181421.285119-5-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251112181421.285119-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
In order exercise more logic in pcapng, vary the size
of the packets.
