127 autoconf version is broken (it only puts the library name in the
128 cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
129
130 - Add a local autoconf macro to check for types; the autoconf version
131 is broken (it uses grep instead of actually compiling a code fragment).
132
133 - Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
134 formats.
135
136 - Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.

184
185 - Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
186
187 - Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
188 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
189
190 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
191
192 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
193 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
194 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
195 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
196 first block N times).
197
198 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
199 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
200

227 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
228
229 - Added some more packet truncation checks.
230

279 - Fix an alignment endian bug in getname(). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
280
281 - Define "new" domain record types if not found in arpa/nameserv.h.

284 types.
285
286 - Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
287
288 - Added T/TCP options printing. As suggested by Richard Stevens

292 accesses.
293
294 v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
295
296 - Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd

317 (cslater@imatek.com).
318
319 - Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
320
321 - Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
322 exit with a bad status if there were problems.
323
324 - Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
325 Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).

358
359 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
360 2.3.
361
362 - Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
363 strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
364 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
365
366 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
367 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
368 (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
369
370 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.

373
374 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
375
376 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
377 "released" one in late 1995.
378
379 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
380
381 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
382
383 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
384 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
385 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
386
387 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
388 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
389
390 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
391 Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
392
393 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
394 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
395
396 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
397
398 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
399
400 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
401
402 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
403
404 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
405
406 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
407 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
408
409 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
410 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
411 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
412 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
413 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
414 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
415 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
416
417 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
418 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
419
420 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
421 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
422 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
423
424 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
425 (brad@fcr.com).
426
427 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
428 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
429
430 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
431 packaged separately).
432
433 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
434
435 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
436 what we expect.
437
438 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
439 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
440
441 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
442 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
443
444 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
445 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
446
447 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
448 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
449 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
450 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
451 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
452 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
453 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
454 with "not ip proto 4".)
455
456 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
457 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
458
459 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
460
461 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
462 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
463 Add && and || operators
464
465 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
466
467 - Fix bug with -c flag.
468
469 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
470
471 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
472 truncate checks.
473
474 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
475 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
476
477 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
478
479 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
480 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
481 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
482
483 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
484 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
485 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
486
487 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
488 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
489
490 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
491
492 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
493
494 - Internal release (never publically exported).
495
496 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
497
498 - Various byte ordering fixes.
499
500 - Add truncation checks.
501
502 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
503
504 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
505
506 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
507
508 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
509 for broadcast nets.
510
511 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
512 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
513
514 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
515
516 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
517
518 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
519
520 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
521 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
522
523 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
524
525 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
526
527 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
528
529 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
530
531 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
532 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
533
534 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
535 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
536 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
537 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
538
539 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
540 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
541 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
542 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.

544 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
545 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
546 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
547
548 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
549 Jeff Mogul).
550
551 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
552
553 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
554 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
555 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
556 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
557
558 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
559
560 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
561
562 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
563
564 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
565 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
566
567 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
568 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
569
570 - IP options are now printed.
571
572 - RIP packets are now printed.
573
574 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
575 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
576 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
577 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
578
579 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
580 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
581 entry).
582
583 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
584 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
585 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
586 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
587 packets.
588
589 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
590 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
591 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
592 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
593 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
594 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
595 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
596 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
