Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over + the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e., + the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because + the protocol dumpers would modify the data). Thanks to Charles Hannum + (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem. + +- Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul + (mogul@pa.dec.com). + +- Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed + (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks + to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org). + +- Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker + (brad@fcr.com). + +- Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to + Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com). + +- Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is + packaged separately). + +- Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler. + +- print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not + what we expect. + +- print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field.

Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul + (mogul@pa.dec.com). + +- print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to + Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown. + +- print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets. + By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token + "(encap)". Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped + (on the same line). Note that the filter applies to the original packet, + not the encapsulated packet. So if you run tcpdump on a net with an + IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the + conventional syntax. (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic + with "not ip proto 4".) + +- print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic + nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul. + +- print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul. + +- tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc" + (sunrpc) and rtp packets.

Add + truncate checks. + +- Added the 'icmp' keyword. For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0' + matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets. + +- Many improvements to filter code optimizer. + +- Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be + so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast" + and "ether multicast" are valid filters. + +- Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo'). + Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel + patches to netinet/if_loop.c. + +- Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS. + Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs. + +- Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig. + +v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992 + +- Internal release (never publicly exported). + +v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT + +- Various byte ordering fixes. + +- Add truncation checks. + +- inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF. + +- nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host. + +- optimize.c: Rewritten. + +- pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous + for broadcast nets. + +- print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to + stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument. + +- print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer. + +- print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks. + +- print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header. + +- print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up + with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp. + +- print-nfs.c: Lots of changes. + +- print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v. + +- print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso. + +- print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options. + +- tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits + (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs. + +- A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL). + With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary + trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer. + At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed. + +- BSD is supported. You must have BPF in your kernel. + Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are + dropped. In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly + Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network. + +- Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our + SLIP software and BPF. These packets are dumped as any other IP + packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option. + +- Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to + Jeff Mogul). + +- Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul). + +- IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by + Rayan Zachariassen . Tcpdump has been tested under + both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface + (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter. + +- TFTP packets are now printed (requests only). + +- BOOTP packets are now printed. + +- SNMP packets are now printed.

E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP + options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN + packets. + + The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means + "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead + of "host foo port bar". The up side to this down is that + repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter + expressions shorter. E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and + (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or + between hosts foo and baz. [The old way of saying this was "ip + host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".] + +v2.0 Sun Jan 13 12:20:40 PST 1991 + +- Initial public release. -- cgit v1.2.3
