97 using MD5 authentication. Thanks to Brian Wellington
100 - Fix truncation check bugs in the Kerberos printer. Reported by Ezra
101 Peisach (epeisach@mit.edu)
103 - Don't catch SIGHUP when invoked with nohup(1). Thanks to Dave Plonka

113 Marty Leisner (leisner@sdsp.mc.xerox.com)
115 - Add a local autoconf macro to check for routines in libraries; the
116 autoconf version is broken (it only puts the library name in the
117 cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
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).
122 - Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
125 - Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.
127 - Fix some signed problems in the nfs printer. As reported by David
128 Sacerdote (davids@silence.secnet.com)
130 - Detect group wheel and use it as the default since BSD/OS' install
131 can't hack numeric groups. Reported by David Sacerdote.

167 - Avoid solaris compiler warnings. Thanks to Bruce Barnett
168 (barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com)
170 - Fix rip printer to not print one more route than is actually in the
171 packet. Thanks to Jean-Luc Richier (Jean-Luc.Richier@imag.fr) and
172 Bill Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
174 - Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
176 - Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
177 Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
179 - Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
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).
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.
190 v3.2.1 Sun Jul 14 03:02:26 PDT 1996
192 - Added rfc1716 icmp codes as suggested by Martin Fredriksson

215 - Avoid using -lsocket in IRIX 5.2 and earlier since it breaks snoop.
216 Thanks to John Hawkinson.
218 - Added some more packet truncation checks.
220 - On systems that have it, use sigset() instead of signal() since
221 signal() has different semantics on these systems.
223 - Fixed some more alignment problems on the alpha.
225 - Add code to massage unprintable characters in the domain and ipx
226 printers. Thanks to John Hawkinson.
228 - Added explicit netmask support. Thanks to Steve Nuchia
229 (steve@research.oknet.com)
231 - Add "sca" keyword (for DEC cluster services) as suggested by Terry
232 Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu)
234 - Add "atalk" keyword as suggested by John Hawkinson.
236 - Added an igrp printer. Thanks to Francis Dupont
237 (francis.dupont@inria.fr)
239 - Print IPX net numbers in hex a la Novell Netware. Thanks to Terry

286 and bind (as suggested by Charles Hannum).
288 - Port to GNU autoconf.
290 - Add support for printing DVMRP and PIM traffic thanks to
291 Havard Eidnes (Havard.Eidnes@runit.sintef.no).

327 "unspecified." Thanks to Deus Ex Machina (root@belle.bork.com).
329 - Rewrote tcp options printer code to check for truncation. Added
330 selective acknowledgment case.
332 - Fixed an endian bug in the ospf printer. Thanks to Jeffrey C Honig
335 - Fix rip printer to handle 4.4 BSD sockaddr struct which only uses one
336 octet for the sa_family member. Thanks to Yoshitaka Tokugawa
339 - Don't checksum ip header if we don't have all of it. Thanks to John
340 Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu).
342 - Print out hostnames if possible in egp printer. Thanks to Jeffrey
346 v3.1a1 Wed May 3 19:21:11 PDT 1995
348 - Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
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).
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).
359 - Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.
361 - BYTEORDER -> BYTE_ORDER Thanks to Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
363 v3.0.3 Sun Oct 1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
365 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
366 "released" one in late 1995.
368 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
370 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
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).
376 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
377 on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
379 - Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer

389 v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
391 - Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
393 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
395 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
396 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
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.
406 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
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).
413 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
416 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
417 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
419 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
420 packaged separately).
422 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
424 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
427 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
428 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
430 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
433 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
434 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
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".)
445 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
446 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
448 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
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
454 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
456 - Fix bug with -c flag.
458 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
460 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
463 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
464 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
466 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
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.
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.
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.
479 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
481 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
483 - Internal release (never publically exported).
485 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
487 - Various byte ordering fixes.
489 - Add truncation checks.
491 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
493 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
495 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
497 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
500 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
501 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
503 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
505 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
507 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
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.
512 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
514 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
516 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
518 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
520 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
521 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
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.
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.
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.
537 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
540 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
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.
547 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
549 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
551 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
553 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
554 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
556 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
557 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
559 - IP options are now printed.
561 - RIP packets are now printed.
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).
568 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
569 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
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
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)".]
587 v2.0 Sun Jan 13 12:20:40 PST 1991
589 - Initial public release.
