77 v3.4 Sat Jul 25 12:40:55 PDT 1998
78
79 - Hardwire Linux slip support since it's too hard to detect.
80
81 - Redo configuration of "network" libraries (-lsocket and -lnsl) to
82 deal with IRIX. Thanks to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)
83
84 - Added -a which tries to translate network and broadcast addresses to
85 names. Suggested by Rob van Nieuwkerk (robn@verdi.et.tudelft.nl)
86
87 - Added a configure option to disable gcc.
88
89 - Added a "raw" packet printer.
90
91 - Not having an interface address is no longer fatal. Requested by John
92 Hawkinson.
93
94 - Rework signal setup to accommodate Linux.

116 autoconf version is broken (it only puts the library name in the
117 cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
118
119 - Add a local autoconf macro to check for types; the autoconf version
120 is broken (it uses grep instead of actually compiling a code fragment).
121
122 - Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
123 formats.
124
125 - Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.
126
127 - Fix some signed problems in the nfs printer. As reported by David
128 Sacerdote (davids@silence.secnet.com)
129
130 - Detect group wheel and use it as the default since BSD/OS' install
131 can't hack numeric groups. Reported by David Sacerdote.
132
133 - AIX needs special loader options. Thanks to Jonathan I. Kamens
134 (jik@cam.ov.com)

158
159 - Add missing m4 quoting in AC_LBL_UNALIGNED_ACCESS autoconf macro.
160 Reported by Joachim Ott (ott@ardala.han.de)
161
162 - Enable "ip_hl vs. ip_vhl" workaround for OSF4 too.

171 packet. Thanks to Jean-Luc Richier (Jean-Luc.Richier@imag.fr) and
172 Bill Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
173
174 - Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
175
176 - Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
177 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
178
179 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
180
181 - Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
182 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
183 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
184 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
185 first block N times).
186
187 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
188 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
189
190 v3.2.1 Sun Jul 14 03:02:26 PDT 1996

207 (borsenkow.msk@sni.de)
208
209 - Use autoconf's idea of the top level directory in install targets.
210 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
211
212 - Avoid infinite loop in tcp options printing code. Thanks to Jeffrey
213 Mogul (mogul@pa.dec.com)
214
215 - Avoid using -lsocket in IRIX 5.2 and earlier since it breaks snoop.
216 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
217
218 - Added some more packet truncation checks.
219
220 - On systems that have it, use sigset() instead of signal() since
221 signal() has different semantics on these systems.
222
223 - Fixed some more alignment problems on the alpha.
224
225 - Add code to massage unprintable characters in the domain and ipx

235
236 - Added an igrp printer. Thanks to Francis Dupont
237 (francis.dupont@inria.fr)
238
239 - Print IPX net numbers in hex a la Novell Netware. Thanks to Terry
240 Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu)
241
242 - Fixed snmp extended tag field parsing bug. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin

265 (martin@msp.se). Also print code value when unknown for icmp redirect
266 and time exceeded.
267
268 - Fix an alignment endian bug in getname(). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
269
270 - Define "new" domain record types if not found in arpa/nameserv.h.

272 fixed an endian bug when printing mx record and added some new record
273 types.
274
275 - Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
276
277 - Added T/TCP options printing. As suggested by Richard Stevens

279
280 - Use autoconf to detect architectures that can't handle misaligned
281 accesses.
282
283 v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
284
285 - Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd
286 and bind (as suggested by Charles Hannum).
287
288 - Port to GNU autoconf.
289
290 - Add support for printing DVMRP and PIM traffic thanks to
291 Havard Eidnes (Havard.Eidnes@runit.sintef.no).
292

306 (cslater@imatek.com).
307
308 - Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
309
310 - Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
311 exit with a bad status if there were problems.
312
313 - Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
314 Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).

348 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
349 2.3.
350
351 - Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
352 strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
353 (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
354
355 - Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning
356 that the selected value was not used. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin
357 (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).
358
359 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.

362
363 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
364
365 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
366 "released" one in late 1995.
367
368 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
369
370 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
371
372 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
373 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
374 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
375
376 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
377 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
378
379 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer

381
382 - Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
383 Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
384

386
387 - Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
388
389 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
390
391 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
392
393 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
394
395 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
396 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
397
398 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
399 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
400 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
401 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
402 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
403 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
404 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
405
406 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
407 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
408
409 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
410 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
411 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
412
413 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
414 (brad@fcr.com).
415
416 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
417 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
418
419 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
420 packaged separately).
421
422 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
423
424 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
425 what we expect.
426
427 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
428 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
429
430 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
431 (mogul@pa.dec.com).
432
433 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
434 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
435
436 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
437 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
438 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
439 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
440 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
441 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
442 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
443 with "not ip proto 4".)
444
445 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
446 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
447
448 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
449
450 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
451 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
452 Add && and || operators
453
454 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
455
456 - Fix bug with -c flag.
457
458 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
459
460 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
461 truncate checks.
462
463 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
464 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
465
466 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
467
468 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
469 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
470 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
471
472 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
473 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
474 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
475
476 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
477 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
478
479 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
480
481 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
482
483 - Internal release (never publically exported).
484
485 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
486
487 - Various byte ordering fixes.
488
489 - Add truncation checks.
490
491 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
492
493 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
494
495 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
496
497 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
498 for broadcast nets.
499
500 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
501 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
502
503 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
504
505 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
506
507 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
508
509 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
510 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
511
512 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
513
514 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
515
516 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
517
518 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
519
520 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
521 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
522
523 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
524 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
525 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
526 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
527
528 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
529 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
530 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
531 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
532
533 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
534 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
535 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
536
537 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
538 Jeff Mogul).
539
540 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
541
542 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
543 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
544 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
545 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
546
547 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
548
549 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
550
551 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
552
553 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
554 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
555
556 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
557 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
558
559 - IP options are now printed.
560
561 - RIP packets are now printed.
562
563 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
564 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
565 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
566 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
567
568 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
569 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
570 entry).
571
572 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
573 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
574 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
575 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
576 packets.
577
578 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
579 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
580 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
581 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
582 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
583 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
584 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
585 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
