305 formats.
306
307 - Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.

359 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
360
361 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
362
363 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
364 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
365 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
366 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
367 first block N times).
368
369 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
370 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.

398 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
399
400 - Added some more packet truncation checks.

527
528 v3.1a1 Wed May 3 19:21:11 PDT 1995
529
530 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
531 2.3.
532
533 - Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
534 strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
535 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
536
537 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
538 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
539 (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
540
541 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.
542
543 - BYTEORDER -> BYTE_ORDER Thanks to Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
544
545 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
546
547 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
548 "released" one in late 1995.
549
550 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
551
552 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
553
554 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
555 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
556 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
557
558 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
559 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
560
561 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
562 Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
563
564 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
565 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
566
567 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
568
569 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
570
571 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
572
573 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
574
575 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
576
577 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
578 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
579
580 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
581 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
582 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
583 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
584 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
585 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
586 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
587
588 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
589 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
590
591 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
592 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
593 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
594
595 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
596 (brad@fcr.com).
597
598 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
599 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
600
601 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
602 packaged separately).
603
604 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
605
606 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
607 what we expect.
608
609 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
610 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
611
612 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
613 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
614
615 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
616 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
617
618 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
619 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
620 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
621 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
622 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
623 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
624 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
625 with "not ip proto 4".)
626
627 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
628 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
629
630 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
631
632 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
633 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
634 Add && and || operators
635
636 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
637
638 - Fix bug with -c flag.
639
640 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
641
642 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
643 truncate checks.
644
645 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
646 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
647
648 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
649
650 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
651 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
652 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
653
654 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
655 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
656 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
657
658 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
659 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
660
661 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
662
663 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
664
665 - Internal release (never publically exported).
666
667 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
668
669 - Various byte ordering fixes.
670
671 - Add truncation checks.
672
673 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
674
675 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
676
677 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
678
679 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
680 for broadcast nets.
681
682 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
683 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
684
685 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
686
687 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
688
689 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
690
691 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
692 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
693
694 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
695
696 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
697
698 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
699
700 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
701
702 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
703 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
704
705 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
706 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
707 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
708 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
709
710 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
711 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
712 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
713 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
714
715 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
716 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
717 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
718
719 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
720 Jeff Mogul).
721
722 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
723
724 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
725 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
726 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
727 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
728
729 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
730
731 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
732
733 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
734
735 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
736 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
737
738 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
739 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
740
741 - IP options are now printed.
742
743 - RIP packets are now printed.
744
745 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
746 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
747 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
748 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
749
750 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
751 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
752 entry).
753
754 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
755 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
756 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
757 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
758 packets.
759
760 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
761 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
762 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
763 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
764 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
765 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
766 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
767 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
768
769 v2.0 Sun Jan 13 12:20:40 PST 1991
770
771 - Initial public release.
