247 (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
248 actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
249 checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
250 first block N times).
252 - Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
253 aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
255 v3.2.1 Sun Jul 14 03:02:26 PDT 1996

285 - On systems that have it, use sigset() instead of signal() since
286 signal() has different semantics on these systems.
288 - Fixed some more alignment problems on the alpha.
290 - Add code to massage unprintable characters in the domain and ipx
291 printers. Thanks to John Hawkinson.

430 - Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
431 "released" one in late 1995.
433 v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
435 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
437 - Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
438 an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
439 Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
441 - Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based

458 v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
460 - Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
461 Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
463 - Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
464 never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
465 in place). Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
466 the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
467 the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
468 the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum
469 (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
471 - Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
474 - Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
475 (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
476 to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
478 - Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
481 - Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
482 Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
484 - Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
485 packaged separately).
487 - Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
489 - print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
492 - print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
493 Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
495 - print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
498 - print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
499 Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
501 - print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
502 By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
503 "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
504 (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
505 not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
506 IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
507 conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
508 with "not ip proto 4".)
510 - print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
511 nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
513 - print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
515 - tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
516 (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
517 Add && and || operators
519 v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
521 - Fix bug with -c flag.
523 v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
525 - savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
528 - Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
529 matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
531 - Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
533 - Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
534 so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
535 and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
537 - Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
538 Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
539 patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
541 - Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
542 Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
544 - Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
546 v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
548 - Internal release (never publically exported).
550 v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
552 - Various byte ordering fixes.
554 - Add truncation checks.
556 - inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
558 - nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
560 - optimize.c: Rewritten.
562 - pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
565 - print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
566 stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
568 - print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
570 - print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
572 - print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
574 - print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
575 with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
577 - print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
579 - print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
581 - print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
583 - print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
585 - tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
586 (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
588 - A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
589 With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
590 trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
591 At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
593 - BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel.
594 Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
595 dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
596 Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
598 - Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
599 SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP
600 packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
602 - Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
605 - Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
607 - IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
608 Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>. Tcpdump has been tested under
609 both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
610 (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
612 - TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
614 - BOOTP packets are now printed.
616 - SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
618 - Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
619 supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
621 - SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
622 University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
624 - IP options are now printed.
626 - RIP packets are now printed.
628 - There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
629 default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
630 and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
631 interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).
633 - The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
634 earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
637 The most useful change is the addition of an expression
638 syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
639 packet. E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
640 options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
643 The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
644 "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
645 of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that
646 repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
647 expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
648 (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
649 between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip
650 host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
