1398 cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
1399
1400 - Add a local autoconf macro to check for types; the autoconf version
1401 is broken (it uses grep instead of actually compiling a code fragment).

1404 formats.
1405
1406 - Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.

1453 Bill Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
1454
1455 - Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
1456
1457 - Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
1458 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
1459
1460 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
1461
1462 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
1463 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
1464 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
1465 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
1466 first block N times).
1467
1468 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
1469 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
1470
1471 v3.2.1 Sun Jul 14 03:02:26 PDT 1996

1488 (borsenkow.msk@sni.de)
1489
1490 - Use autoconf's idea of the top level directory in install targets.
1491 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
1492
1493 - Avoid infinite loop in tcp options printing code. Thanks to Jeffrey
1494 Mogul (mogul@pa.dec.com)
1495
1496 - Avoid using -lsocket in IRIX 5.2 and earlier since it breaks snoop.
1497 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
1498
1499 - Added some more packet truncation checks.
1500

1533 (carl_lindberg@blacksmith.com)
1534
1535 - Fixes for AIX (although this system is not yet supported). Thanks to
1536 John Hawkinson.
1537
1538 - Fix bugs in the autoconf misaligned accesses code fragment.
1539

1554 types.
1555
1556 - Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
1557

1562 accesses.
1563
1564 v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
1565
1566 - Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd
1567 and bind (as suggested by Charles Hannum).
1568
1569 - Port to GNU autoconf.
1570
1571 - Add support for printing DVMRP and PIM traffic thanks to

1585
1586 - Document -dd and -ddd. Resulted from a bug report from Charlie Slater
1587 (cslater@imatek.com).
1588
1589 - Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
1590
1591 - Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
1592 exit with a bad status if there were problems.
1593
1594 - Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
1595 Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).
1596
1597 - Print out a little more information for sun rpc packets.
1598
1599 - Add support for Kerberos 4 thanks to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu).

1624 Honig (jhc@bsdi.com)
1625
1626
1627 v3.1a1 Wed May 3 19:21:11 PDT 1995
1628
1629 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
1630 2.3.
1631
1632 - Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
1633 strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
1634 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
1635
1636 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
1637 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
1638 (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
1639
1640 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.
1641
1642 - BYTEORDER -> BYTE_ORDER Thanks to Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
1643
1644 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
1645
1646 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
1647 "released" one in late 1995.
1648
1649 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
1650
1651 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
1652
1653 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
1654 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
1655 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
1656
1657 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
1658 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
1659
1660 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
1661 Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
1662
1663 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
1664 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
1665
1666 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
1667
1668 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
1669
1670 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
1671
1672 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
1673
1674 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
1675
1676 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
1677 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
1678
1679 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
1680 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
1681 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
1682 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
1683 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
1684 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
1685 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
1686
1687 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
1688 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
1689
1690 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
1691 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
1692 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
1693
1694 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
1695 (brad@fcr.com).
1696
1697 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
1698 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
1699
1700 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
1701 packaged separately).
1702
1703 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
1704
1705 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
1706 what we expect.
1707
1708 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
1709 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
1710
1711 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
1712 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
1713
1714 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
1715 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
1716
1717 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
1718 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
1719 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
1720 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
1721 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
1722 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
1723 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
1724 with "not ip proto 4".)
1725
1726 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
1727 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
1728
1729 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
1730
1731 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
1732 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
1733 Add && and || operators
1734
1735 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
1736
1737 - Fix bug with -c flag.
1738
1739 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
1740
1741 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
1742 truncate checks.
1743
1744 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
1745 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
1746
1747 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
1748
1749 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
1750 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
1751 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
1752
1753 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
1754 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
1755 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
1756
1757 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
1758 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
1759
1760 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
1761
1762 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
1763
1764 - Internal release (never publicly exported).
1765
1766 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
1767
1768 - Various byte ordering fixes.
1769
1770 - Add truncation checks.
1771
1772 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
1773
1774 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
1775
1776 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
1777
1778 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
1779 for broadcast nets.
1780
1781 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
1782 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
1783
1784 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
1785
1786 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
1787
1788 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
1789
1790 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
1791 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
1792
1793 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
1794
1795 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
1796
1797 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
1798
1799 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
1800
1801 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
1802 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
1803
1804 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
1805 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
1806 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
1807 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
1808
1809 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
1810 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
1811 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
1812 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
1813
1814 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
1815 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
1816 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
1817
1818 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
1819 Jeff Mogul).
1820
1821 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
1822
1823 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
1824 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. tcpdump has been tested under
1825 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
1826 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
1827
1828 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
1829
1830 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
1831
1832 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
1833
1834 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
1835 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
1836
1837 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
1838 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
1839
1840 - IP options are now printed.
1841
1842 - RIP packets are now printed.
1843
1844 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
1845 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
1846 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
1847 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
1848
1849 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
1850 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
1851 entry).
1852
1853 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
1854 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
1855 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
1856 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
1857 packets.
1858
1859 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
1860 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
1861 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
1862 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
1863 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
1864 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
1865 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
1866 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
