Howdy,
I've been trying to debug CARP problems of late. I noticed that our tcpdump didn't have CARP
support. I took and fixed some code from OpenBSD so that our tcpdump can work with
CARP. Unlike OpenBSD you have to specify -T carp to read carp packets. In their version
you specify -T VRRP, because they don't like VRRP. I decided that we should go with
what most of the industry cares about rather than what OpenBSD cares about.
Patch is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~gnn/tcpdump-carp.diff
Technical comments welcome.
Best,
George
