398 formats.
399

452 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
453
454 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
455
456 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
457 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
458 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
459 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
460 first block N times).
461
462 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
463 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.

544
545 - Define "new" domain record types if not found in arpa/nameserv.h.

549
550 - Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
551
552 - Added T/TCP options printing. As suggested by Richard Stevens

556 accesses.
557
558 v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
559
560 - Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd

581 (cslater@imatek.com).
582
583 - Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
584
585 - Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
586 exit with a bad status if there were problems.
587
588 - Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
589 Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).

622
623 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
624 2.3.
625
626 - Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
627 strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
628 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
629
630 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
631 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
632 (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
633
634 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.

637
638 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
639
640 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
641 "released" one in late 1995.
642
643 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
644
645 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
646
647 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
648 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
649 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
650
651 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
652 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
653
654 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
655 Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
656
657 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
658 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
659
660 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
661
662 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
663
664 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
665
666 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
667
668 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
669
670 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
671 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
672
673 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
674 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
675 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
676 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
677 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
678 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
679 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
680
681 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
682 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
683
684 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
685 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
686 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
687
688 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
689 (brad@fcr.com).
690
691 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
692 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
693
694 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
695 packaged separately).
696
697 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
698
699 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
700 what we expect.
701
702 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
703 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
704
705 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
706 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
707
708 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
709 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
710
711 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
712 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
713 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
714 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
715 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
716 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
717 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
718 with "not ip proto 4".)
719
720 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
721 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
722
723 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
724
725 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
726 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
727 Add && and || operators
728
729 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
730
731 - Fix bug with -c flag.
732
733 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
734
735 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
736 truncate checks.
737
738 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
739 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
740
741 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
742
743 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
744 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
745 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
746
747 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
748 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
749 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
750
751 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
752 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
753
754 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
755
756 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
757
758 - Internal release (never publically exported).
759
760 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
761
762 - Various byte ordering fixes.
763
764 - Add truncation checks.
765
766 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
767
768 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
769
770 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
771
772 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
773 for broadcast nets.
774
775 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
776 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
777
778 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
779
780 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
781
782 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
783
784 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
785 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
786
787 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
788
789 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
790
791 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
792
793 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
794
795 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
796 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
797
798 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
799 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
800 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
801 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
802
803 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
804 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
805 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
806 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
807
808 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
809 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
810 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
811
812 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
813 Jeff Mogul).
814
815 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
816
817 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
818 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
819 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
820 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
821
822 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
823
824 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
825
826 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
827
828 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
829 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
830
831 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
832 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
833
834 - IP options are now printed.
835
836 - RIP packets are now printed.
837
838 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
839 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
840 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
841 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
842
843 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
844 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
845 entry).
846
847 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
848 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
849 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
850 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
851 packets.
852
853 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
854 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
855 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
856 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
857 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
858 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
859 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
860 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
861
862 v2.0 Sun Jan 13 12:20:40 PST 1991
863
864 - Initial public release.
