    I have to develop the sniffer apllication (just some core functions as packet capturing, navigation etc.). I know it's possible to do with the WinPcap (libpcap for Linux). If it is possible, what classes should I use?

      Hi and welcome to devnet,

      Such low-level elements are outside of Qt's network stack so libpcap is a good choice.

      Note that there's Wireshark that already exists and sports now a Qt GUI on top of its analysis logic.
