467 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
468
469 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
470
471 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
472 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
473 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
474 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
475 first block N times).
476
477 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
478 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.

563 types.
564
565 - Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
566

596 (cslater@imatek.com).
597
598 - Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
599
600 - Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
601 exit with a bad status if there were problems.
602
603 - Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
604 Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).
605
606 - Print out a little more information for sun rpc packets.
607

643 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
644
645 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
646 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin

652
653 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
654
655 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
656 "released" one in late 1995.
657
658 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
659
660 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
661
662 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
663 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
664 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
665
666 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
667 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
668
669 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
670 Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
671
672 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
673 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
674
675 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
676
677 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
678
679 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
680
681 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
682
683 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
684
685 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
686 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
687
688 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
689 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
690 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
691 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
692 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
693 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
694 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
695
696 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
697 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
698
699 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
700 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
701 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
702
703 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
704 (brad@fcr.com).
705
706 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
707 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
708
709 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
710 packaged separately).
711
712 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
713
714 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
715 what we expect.
716
717 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
718 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
719
720 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
721 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
722
723 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
724 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
725
726 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
727 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
728 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
729 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
730 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
731 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
732 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
733 with "not ip proto 4".)
734
735 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
736 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
737
738 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
739
740 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
741 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
742 Add && and || operators
743
744 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
745
746 - Fix bug with -c flag.
747
748 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
749
750 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
751 truncate checks.
752
753 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
754 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
755
756 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
757
758 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
759 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
760 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
761
762 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
763 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
764 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
765
766 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
767 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
768
769 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
770
771 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
772
773 - Internal release (never publically exported).
774
775 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
776
777 - Various byte ordering fixes.
778
779 - Add truncation checks.
780
781 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
782
783 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
784
785 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
786
787 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
788 for broadcast nets.
789
790 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
791 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
792
793 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
794
795 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
796
797 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
798
799 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
800 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
801
802 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
803
804 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
805
806 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
807
808 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
809
810 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
811 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
812
813 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
814 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
815 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
816 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
817
818 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
819 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
820 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
821 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
822
823 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
824 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
825 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
826
827 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
828 Jeff Mogul).
829
830 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
831
832 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
833 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
834 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
835 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
836
837 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
838
839 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
840
841 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
842
843 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
844 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
845
846 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
847 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
848
849 - IP options are now printed.
850
851 - RIP packets are now printed.
852
853 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
854 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
855 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
856 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
857
858 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
859 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
860 entry).
861
862 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
863 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
864 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
865 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
866 packets.
867
868 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
869 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
870 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
871 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
872 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
873 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
874 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
875 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
876
877 v2.0 Sun Jan 13 12:20:40 PST 1991
878
879 - Initial public release.
