  1. The following instructions are applicable to Tru64 UNIX
  2. (formerly Digital UNIX (formerly DEC OSF/1)) version 4.0, and
  3. probably to later versions as well; at least some options apply to
  4. Digital UNIX 3.2 - perhaps all do.
  5. In order to use kernel packet filtering on this system, you have
  6. to configure it in such a way:
  7. Kernel configuration
  8. --------------------
  9. The packet filtering kernel option must be enabled at kernel
  10. installation. If it was not the case, you can rebuild the kernel with
  11. "doconfig -c" after adding the following line in the kernel
  12. configuration file (/sys/conf/<HOSTNAME>):
  13. option PACKETFILTER
  14. or use "doconfig" without any arguments to add the packet filter driver
  15. option via the kernel option menu (see the system administration
  16. documentation for information on how to do this).
  17. Device configuration
  18. --------------------
  19. Devices used for packet filtering must be created thanks to
  20. the following command (executed in the /dev directory):
  21. ./MAKEDEV pfilt
  22. Interface configuration
  23. -----------------------
  24. In order to capture all packets on a network, you may want to allow
  25. applications to put the interface on that network into "local copy"
  26. mode, so that tcpdump can see packets sent by the host on which it's
  27. running as well as packets received by that host, and to put the
  28. interface into "promiscuous" mode, so that tcpdump can see packets on
  29. the network segment not sent to the host on which it's running, by using
  30. the pfconfig(1) command:
  31. pfconfig +c +p <network_device>
  32. or allow application to put any interface into "local copy" or
  33. "promiscuous" mode by using the command:
  34. pfconfig +c +p -a
  35. Note: all instructions given require root privileges.
