I have patience, and hope other have too!
Hope others do/will have patience with me!
I want to document "active-filter in pppd" but have had trouble
making it work right and hoped tcpdump would help! I had a private email
telling me where to obtain a non tested static tcpdump, but have run into
trouble.
tcpdump running
with multicasts only coming in the active-filter idle time out works!
with multicast and pings and ping replies coming in active-filter
never idle timeout occurs.
ping = icmp: echo request
ping reply = icmp: echo reply
I have tried expressions on tcpdump to show only the ping and ping
reply, and have had multicast only work.
tcpdump -i ppp0 'icmp[0] = 8 or icmp[0] = 0 '
does show icmp: echo request and icmp: echo reply packets.
tcpdump -i ppp0 'ether[0] & 1 != 0'
This shows the multicast packets.
tcpdump -i ppp0 'ether[0] & 1 != 0 or icmp[0] =8 or icmp[0] = 0 '
only shows the ping request and ping reply packets
so what happened to the multicast packets?
I need what ever expression used in tcpdump to see the multicast packets
and ping request and reply to place on an active-filter statement!
For mine own use I can ignore the "ping packets" but think it would be
good to have in place and properly documented!
Does anyone have good suggestions or need some information to help solve
the problem.
Thank You in Advance!
