Subject: TCPIP sniffering

Hi,

we are quite new to zLinux (not to linux). We have some troubles with
TCPIP networking, and are trying to diagnose some things.
One of the first things we do is start sniffering on the network devices
(tcpdump or ethereal).

When we do this on zLinux, we see only weird packets passing, not
anything that is recognized by either tcpdump or ethereal.
The packets look like this :

13:01:38.311734 40:00:7a:06:07:eb (oui Unknown) > 45:60:00:5c:43:5c (oui
Unknown), ethertype Unknown (0xac1e), length 92:
        0x0000:  aac9 9148 ccc4 0f22 0016 e598 2910 a9ca

        0x0040:  4ef6 53a4 8c80 9c5d 581f 1df3 2c2d       N.S....]X...,-

There are thousands of packets like this passing in just a few seconds.
The symptoms are the same for both OSA devices as HiperSockets.

Are we missing something here ?
I know we can somehow do similar thing under z/VM, but at the moment the
Linux environment is more comfortable to us, so any advice is welcome.

regards,
Harry Metske
