Android Network traffic monitoring

Question

Is there a native android Api to monitor network traffic and may be restrict it ? I came across TrafficStats but i dont think it provides a method to dump the packets and analyze it later or in real time. If there is no native support, then what are other possibilities to implement something like this ?

Answer 1

I have not used it myself, but have heard of others using a variant of tcpdump called tcpdump-arm for capturing and analyzing Android device traffic.
