Hi all,
In order to take advantage of the new '-P' switch in
tcpdump to filter in/out trafic from an interface, I
need to move from tcpdump 4.4.0 to 4.5.1.
http://www.tcpdump.org/tcpdump_man.html
I did a set of minimal patches to upgrade tcpdump and
its companion libpcap in ports to the latest versions.
In our tests (FreeBSD-i386-9.1-RELEASE and i386-10.0-BETA1)
tcpdump 4.5.1 works fine and capture the desired trafic.
I didn't perform any test to check if the deinstall/package
works, this will come with a future PR.
regards
