Hi all,

I am using a perl script to parse pcap file to extract some data from the packets and the first few lines in the script are as given below. 

use Net::Pcap;
use NetPacket::Ethernet;
use NetPacket::IP;
use NetPacket::TCP;
use strict;
use warnings;

[download]

When i ran the program, i got an error of Net/Pcap.pm not found. so i installed, libpcap and NetPcap. Then i got an error for the second line "Can't locate NetPacket/Ethernet.pm".

I read in other forums that installing CPAN will work. I wanted to know whether installing CPAN is a good option or do we get NetPacket module to install? Please help.
