(1) To configure libpcap under AIX 4.x, you should use DLPI instead
|
||||||
|
of BPF, since IBM's version of BPF includes some undocumented
|
||||||
|
and unsupported changes to the original BPF.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This can be done by specifying the flag:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
--with-pcap=dlpi
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
to the "configure" script for libpcap.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(2) Also, it is a good idea to have the latest version of the DLPI
|
||||||
|
driver on your system, since certain versions may be buggy and
|
||||||
|
cause your AIX system to crash. DLPI is included in the
|
||||||
|
fileset bos.rte.tty. I found that the DLPI driver that came with
|
||||||
|
AIX 4.3.2 was buggy, and had to upgrade to bos.rte.tty 4.3.2.4:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
lslpp -l bos.rte.tty
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
bos.rte.tty 4.3.2.4 COMMITTED Base TTY Support and Commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Updates for AIX filesets can be obtained from:
|
||||||
|
ftp://service.software.ibm.com/aix/fixes/
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These updates can be installed with the smit program.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(3) After compiling libpcap, you need to make sure that the DLPI driver
|
||||||
|
is loaded. Type:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
strload -q -d dlpi
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the result is:
|
||||||
|
dlpi: yes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
then the DLPI driver is loaded correctly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If it is:
|
||||||
|
dlpi: no
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then you need to type:
|
||||||
|
strload -f /etc/dlpi.conf
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Check again with strload -q -d dlpi that the dlpi driver is loaded.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Alternatively, you can uncomment the lines for DLPI in
|
||||||
|
/etc/pse.conf and reboot the machine; this way DLPI will always
|
||||||
|
be loaded when you boot your system.
