Hi,
        Now I get that on some OS, for UDP and ICMP packets, the ip
identification fields are not set.

        But I want that every packet has an id. Is there any emthod to get
the current system glocal variable "ip_id" and change it or
enable UDP and ICMP ip identification number somewhere?

        Thanks!
