47v3.4 Sat Jul 25 12:40:55 PDT 1998
48
49- Hardwire Linux slip support since it's too hard to detect.
50
51- Redo configuration of "network" libraries (-lsocket and -lnsl) to
52  deal with IRIX. Thanks to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)
53
54- Added -a which tries to translate network and broadcast addresses to
55  names. Suggested by Rob van Nieuwkerk (robn@verdi.et.tudelft.nl)
56
57- Added a configure option to disable gcc.
58
59- Added a "raw" packet printer.
60
61- Not having an interface address is no longer fatal. Requested by John
62  Hawkinson.

86  autoconf version is broken (it only puts the library name in the
87  cache variable name). Thanks to John Hawkinson.
88
89- Add a local autoconf macro to check for types; the autoconf version
90  is broken (it uses grep instead of actually compiling a code fragment).
91
92- Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
93  formats.
94
95- Extend OSF ip header workaround to versions 1 and 2.
96
97- Fix some signed problems in the nfs printer. As reported by David
98  Sacerdote (davids@silence.secnet.com)

100- Detect group wheel and use it as the default since BSD/OS' install
101  can't hack numeric groups. Reported by David Sacerdote.
102
103- AIX needs special loader options. Thanks to Jonathan I. Kamens
104  (jik@cam.ov.com)

138  (barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com)
139
140- Fix rip printer to not print one more route than is actually in the
141  packet. Thanks to Jean-Luc Richier (Jean-Luc.Richier@imag.fr) and
142  Bill Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
143
144- Use autoconf endian detection since BYTE_ORDER isn't defined on all systems.
145
146- Fix dvmrp printer truncation checks and add a dvmrp probe printer.
147  Thanks to Danny J. Mitzel (mitzel@ipsilon.com)
148
149- Rewrite ospf printer to improve truncation checks.
150
151- Don't parse tcp options past the EOL. As noted by David Sacerdote
152  (davids@secnet.com). Also, check tcp options to make sure they ar
153  actually in the tcp header (in addition to the normal truncation
154  checks). Fix the SACK code to print the N blocks (instead of the
155  first block N times).
156
157- Don't say really small UDP packets are truncated just because they
158  aren't big enough to be a RPC. As noted by David Sacerdote.
159

186  Thanks to John Hawkinson.
187
188- Added some more packet truncation checks.
189

209- Print IPX net numbers in hex a la Novell Netware. Thanks to Terry
210  Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu)
211
212- Fixed snmp extended tag field parsing bug. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin

243  types.
244
245- Added RIP V2 support. Thanks to Jeffrey Honig (jch@bsdi.com)
246
247- Added T/TCP options printing. As suggested by Richard Stevens
248  (rstevens@noao.edu)
249
250- Use autoconf to detect architectures that can't handle misaligned
251  accesses.
252
253v3.1 Thu Jun 13 20:59:32 PDT 1996
254
255- Changed u_int32/int32 to u_int32_t/int32_t to be consistent with bsd
256  and bind (as suggested by Charles Hannum).
257
258- Port to GNU autoconf.
259

276  (cslater@imatek.com).
277
278- Check return status from malloc/calloc/etc.
279
280- Check return status from pcap_loop() so we can print an error and
281  exit with a bad status if there were problems.
282
283- Bail if ip option length is <= 0. Resulted from a bug report from
284  Darren Reed (darrenr@vitruvius.arbld.unimelb.edu.au).

316v3.1a1 Wed May  3 19:21:11 PDT 1995
317
318- Include time.h when SVR4 is defined to avoid problems under Solaris
319  2.3.
320
321- Fix etheraddr_string() in the ETHER_SERVICE to return the saved
322  strings, not the local buffer. Thanks to Stefan Petri
323  (petri@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de).
324
325- Detect when pcap raises the snaplen (e.g. with snit). Print a warning

328
329- Add a truncated packet test to print-nfs.c. Thanks to Pascal Hennequin.
330

332
333v3.0.3 Sun Oct  1 18:35:00 GMT 1995
334
335- Although there never was a 3.0.3 release, the linux boys cleverly
336  "released" one in late 1995.
337
338v3.0.2 Thu Apr 20 21:28:16 PDT 1995
339
340- Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
341
342- Redo gmt2local() so that it works under BSDI (which seems to return
343  an empty timezone struct from gettimeofday()). Based on report from
344  Terry Kennedy (terry@spcvxa.spc.edu).
345
346- Change configure to recognize IP[0-9]* as "mips" SGI hardware. Based
347  on report from Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
348
349- Don't pass cc flags to gcc. Resulted from a bug report from Rainer
350  Orth (ro@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de).
351
352- Fixed printout of connection id for uncompressed tcp slip packets.
353  Resulted from a bug report from Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
354
355- Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
356
357- Add ETHERTYPE_TRAIL define which is missing from irix5.
358
359v3.0.1 Wed Aug 31 22:42:26 PDT 1994
360
361- Fix problems with gcc2 vs. malloc() and read() prototypes under SunOS 4.
362
363v3.0 Mon Jun 20 19:23:27 PDT 1994
364
365- Added support for printing tcp option timestamps thanks to
366  Mark Andrews (mandrews@alias.com).
367
368- Reorganize protocol dumpers to take const pointers to packets so they
369  never change the contents (i.e., they used to do endian conversions
370  in place).  Previously, whenever more than one pass was taken over
371  the packet, the packet contents would be dumped incorrectly (i.e.,
372  the output form -x would be wrong on little endian machines because
373  the protocol dumpers would modify the data).  Thanks to Charles Hannum
374  (mycroft@gnu.ai.mit.edu) for reporting this problem.
375
376- Added support for decnet protocol dumping thanks to Jeff Mogul
377  (mogul@pa.dec.com).
378
379- Fix bug that caused length of packet to be incorrectly printed
380  (off by ether header size) for unknown ethernet types thanks
381  to Greg Miller (gmiller@kayak.mitre.org).
382
383- Added support for IPX protocol dumping thanks to Brad Parker
384  (brad@fcr.com).
385
386- Added check to verify IP header checksum under -v thanks to
387  Brad Parker (brad@fcr.com).
388
389- Move packet capture code to new libpcap library (which is
390  packaged separately).
391
392- Prototype everything and assume an ansi compiler.
393
394- print-arp.c: Print hardware ethernet addresses if they're not
395  what we expect.
396
397- print-bootp.c: Decode the cmu vendor field. Add RFC1497 tags.
398  Many helpful suggestions from Gordon Ross (gwr@jericho.mc.com).
399
400- print-fddi.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul
401  (mogul@pa.dec.com).
402
403- print-icmp.c: Byte swap netmask before printing. Thanks to
404  Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu). Print icmp type when unknown.
405
406- print-ip.c: Print the inner ip datagram of ip-in-ip encapsulated packets.
407  By default, only the inner packet is dumped, appended with the token
408  "(encap)".  Under -v, both the inner and output packets are dumped
409  (on the same line).  Note that the filter applies to the original packet,
410  not the encapsulated packet.  So if you run tcpdump on a net with an
411  IP Multicast tunnel, you cannot filter out the datagrams using the
412  conventional syntax.  (You can filter away all the ip-in-ip traffic
413  with "not ip proto 4".)
414
415- print-nfs.c: Keep pending rpc's in circular table. Add generic
416  nfs header and remove os dependences. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
417
418- print-ospf.c: Improvements. Thanks to Jeffrey Mogul.
419
420- tcpdump.c: Add -T flag allows interpretation of "vat", "wb", "rpc"
421  (sunrpc) and rtp packets. Added "inbound" and "outbound" keywords
422  Add && and || operators
423
424v2.2.1 Tue Jun 6 17:57:22 PDT 1992
425
426- Fix bug with -c flag.
427
428v2.2 Fri May 22 17:19:41 PDT 1992
429
430- savefile.c: Remove hack that shouldn't have been exported. Add
431  truncate checks.
432
433- Added the 'icmp' keyword.  For example, 'icmp[0] != 8 and icmp[0] != 0'
434  matches non-echo/reply ICMP packets.
435
436- Many improvements to filter code optimizer.
437
438- Added 'multicast' keyword and extended the 'broadcast' keyword can now be
439  so that protocol qualifications are allowed. For example, "ip broadcast"
440  and "ether multicast" are valid filters.
441
442- Added support for monitoring the loopback interface (i.e. 'tcpdump -i lo').
443  Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) contributed the kernel
444  patches to netinet/if_loop.c.
445
446- Added support for the Ungermann-Bass Ethernet on IBM/PC-RTs running AOS.
447  Contact Jeffrey Honig (jch@MITCHELL.CIT.CORNELL.EDU) for the diffs.
448
449- Added EGP and OSPF printers, thanks to Jeffrey Honig.
450
451v2.1 Tue Jan 28 11:00:14 PST 1992
452
453- Internal release (never publically exported).
454
455v2.0.1 Sun Jan 26 21:10:10 PDT
456
457- Various byte ordering fixes.
458
459- Add truncation checks.
460
461- inet.c: Support BSD style SIOCGIFCONF.
462
463- nametoaddr.c: Handle multi addresses for single host.
464
465- optimize.c: Rewritten.
466
467- pcap-bpf.c: don't choke when we get ptraced. only set promiscuous
468  for broadcast nets.
469
470- print-atal.c: Fix an alignment bug (thanks to
471  stanonik@nprdc.navy.mil) Add missing printf() argument.
472
473- print-bootp.c: First attempt at decoding the vendor buffer.
474
475- print-domain.c: Fix truncation checks.
476
477- print-icmp.c: Calculate length of packets from the ip header.
478
479- print-ip.c: Print frag id in decimal (so it's easier to match up
480  with non-frags). Add support for ospf, egp and igmp.
481
482- print-nfs.c: Lots of changes.
483
484- print-ntp.c: Make some verbose output depend on -v.
485
486- print-snmp.c: New version from John LoVerso.
487
488- print-tcp.c: Print rfc1072 tcp options.
489
490- tcpdump.c: Print "0x" prefix for %x formats. Always print 6 digits
491  (microseconds) worth of precision. Fix uid bugs.
492
493- A packet dumper has been added (thanks to Jeff Mogul of DECWRL).
494  With this option, you can create an architecture independent binary
495  trace file in real time, without the overhead of the packet printer.
496  At a later time, the packets can be filtered (again) and printed.
497
498- BSD is supported.  You must have BPF in your kernel.
499  Since the filtering is now done in the kernel, fewer packets are
500  dropped.  In fact, with BPF and the packet dumper option, a measly
501  Sun 3/50 can keep up with a busy network.
502
503- Compressed SLIP packets can now be dumped, provided you use our
504  SLIP software and BPF.  These packets are dumped as any other IP
505  packet; the compressed headers are dumped with the '-e' option.
506
507- Machines with little-endian byte ordering are supported (thanks to
508  Jeff Mogul).
509
510- Ultrix 4.0 is supported (also thanks to Jeff Mogul).
511
512- IBM RT and Stanford Enetfilter support has been added by
513  Rayan Zachariassen <rayan@canet.ca>.  Tcpdump has been tested under
514  both the vanilla Enetfilter interface, and the extended interface
515  (#ifdef'd by IBMRTPC) present in the MERIT version of the Enetfilter.
516
517- TFTP packets are now printed (requests only).
518
519- BOOTP packets are now printed.
520
521- SNMP packets are now printed. (thanks to John LoVerso of Xylogics).
522
523- Sparc architectures, including the Sparcstation-1, are now
524  supported thanks to Steve McCanne and Craig Leres.
525
526- SunOS 4 is now supported thanks to Micky Liu of Columbia
527  University (micky@cunixc.cc.columbia.edu).
528
529- IP options are now printed.
530
531- RIP packets are now printed.
532
533- There's a -v flag that prints out more information than the
534  default (e.g., it will enable printing of IP ttl, tos and id)
535  and -q flag that prints out less (e.g., it will disable
536  interpretation of AppleTalk-in-UDP).

538- The grammar has undergone substantial changes (if you have an
539  earlier version of tcpdump, you should re-read the manual
540  entry).
541
542  The most useful change is the addition of an expression
543  syntax that lets you filter on arbitrary fields or values in the
544  packet.  E.g., "ip[0] > 0x45" would print only packets with IP
545  options, "tcp[13] & 3 != 0" would print only TCP SYN and FIN
546  packets.
547
548  The most painful change is that concatenation no longer means
549  "and" -- e.g., you have to say "host foo and port bar" instead
550  of "host foo port bar".  The up side to this down is that
551  repeated qualifiers can be omitted, making most filter
552  expressions shorter.  E.g., you can now say "ip host foo and
553  (bar or baz)" to look at ip traffic between hosts foo and bar or
554  between hosts foo and baz.  [The old way of saying this was "ip
555  host foo and (ip host bar or ip host baz)".]
