For HP-UX 11i (11.11) and later, there are no known issues with
|
|
promiscuous mode under HP-UX. If you are using a earlier version of
|
|
HP-UX and cannot upgrade, please continue reading.

|
|
HP-UX patches to fix packet capture problems
|
|
|
|
Note that packet-capture programs such as tcpdump may, on HP-UX, not be
|
|
able to see packets sent from the machine on which they're running.

Two things:
|
|
1. You do need a late "LAN products cumulative patch" (e.g. PHNE_18173
|
|
for s700/10.20).
|
|
2. You must use
|
|
echo 'lanc_outbound_promisc_flag/W1' | /usr/bin/adb -w /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
|
|
You can insert this e.g. into /sbin/init.d/lan

What you are seeing is expected, un-patched, behaviour for an HP-UX
|
|
system. On 11.00, you need to install the latest lancommon/DLPI
|
|
patches, and then the latest driver patch for the interface(s) in use.
|
|
At that point, a miracle happens and you should start seeing outbound
|
|
traffic.

Thanks a lot. I have this problem on several machines running HPUX
|
|
10.20 and 11.00. The machines where patched up before y2k so did not
|
|
know what to think. Anyway I have now installed PHNE_19766,
|
|
PHNE_19826, PHNE_20008, PHNE_20735 on the C200 and now I can see the
|
|
outbound traffic too. Thanks again.
|
|
|
|
(although those patches may not be the ones to install - there may be
|
|
later patches).

http://itrc.hp.com/ would be one place to start in a search for the most
|
|
up-to-date patches for DLPI and the lan driver(s) used on your system (I
|
|
cannot guess because 9000/800 is too generic - one hs to use the "model"
|
|
command these days and/or an ioscan command (see manpage) to guess what
|
|
the drivers (btlan[3456], gelan, etc) might be involved in addition to
|
|
DLPI.
|
|
|
|
Another option is to upgrade to 11i as outbound promiscuous mode support
|
|
is there in the base OS, no patches required.

: Has anyone ported tcpdump (or something similar) to HP/UX 9.x?
|
|
|
|
I'm reasonably confident that any port of tcpdump to 9.X would require
|
|
the (then optional) STREAMS product. This would bring DLPI, which is
|
|
what one uses to access interfaces in promiscuous mode.
|
|
|
|
I'm not sure that HP even sells the 9.X STREAMS product any longer,
|
|
since HP-UX 9.X is off the pricelist (well, maybe 9.10 for the old 68K
|
|
devices).
|
|
|
|
Your best bet is to be up on 10.20 or better if that is at all
|
|
possible. If your hardware is supported by it, I'd go with HP-UX 11.
|
|
If you want to see the system's own outbound traffic, you'll never get
|
|
that functionality on 9.X, but it might happen at some point for 10.20
|
|
and 11.X.

(as per other messages cited here, the ability to see the system's own
|
|
outbound traffic did happen).
|
|
|
|
Rick Jones reports that HP-UX 11i needs no patches for outbound
|
|
promiscuous mode support.
|
|
|
|
An additional note, from Jost Martin, for HP-UX 10.20:
|
|
|
|
Q: How do I get ethereral on HPUX to capture the _outgoing_ packets
|
|
of an interface
|
|
A: You need to get PHNE_20892,PHNE_20725 and PHCO_10947 (or
|
|
newer, this is as of 4.4.00) and its dependencies. Then you can
|
|
enable the feature as descibed below:
|
|
|
|
Patch Name: PHNE_20892
|
|
Patch Description: s700 10.20 PCI 100Base-T cumulative patch
|
|
To trace the outbound packets, please do the following
|
|
to turn on a global promiscuous switch before running
|
|
the promiscuous applications like snoop or tcpdump:
|
|
|
|
adb -w /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
|
|
lanc_outbound_promisc_flag/W 1
|
|
(adb will echo the result showing that the flag has
|
|
been changed)
|
|
$quit
|
|
(Thanks for this part to HP-support, Ratingen)
|
|
|
|
The attached hack does this and some security-related stuff
|
|
(thanks to hildeb@www.stahl.bau.tu-bs.de (Ralf Hildebrandt) who
|
|
posted the security-part some time ago)
|
|
|
|
<<hack_ip_stack>>
|
|
|
|
(Don't switch IP-forwarding off, if you need it !)
|
|
Install the hack as /sbin/init.d/hacl_ip_stack (adjust
|
|
permissions !) and make a sequencing-symlink
|
|
/sbin/rc2.d/S350hack_ip_stack pointing to this script.
|
|
Now all this is done on every reboot.
|
|
|
|
According to Rick Jones, the global promiscuous switch also has to be
|
|
turned on for HP-UX 11.00, but not for 11i - and, in fact, the switch
|
|
doesn't even exist on 11i.
