If you successfully compiled or uploaded a packet sniffer on virtual machine #1, it will sniff packets for every other virtual machine on that box.

Each virtual machine is bound to their own IP address so you can't listen to other machines on the same box.  You however could listen to any broadcasts on the local network, or anything else a bare metal server could do.

It is the same physical card in the same physical machine.  C++ is quite powerful.


Except you don't have access to the device.  In a VM you have a virtualized device you interact with and the host OS forward packets from the hardware.

Saying a language is powerful is pointless.  Most are touring complete so you can accomplish the same task in any of them.

I don't need access to the device.  I need access to the memory.  Or are you going to tell me that they have separate memory sticks too?  Tongue


Go ahead and write to the memory, you wont be able to address it so it is pointless.  Just because you can compile a program on a machine doesn't mean you can access a device without root access.
