Windows XP下的抓包程序实现

Using BPF:

(1) AIX 4.x's version of BPF is undocumented and somewhat unstandard; the
    current BPF support code includes changes that should work around
    that; it appears to compile and work on at least one AIX 4.3.3
    machine.

    Note that the BPF driver and the "/dev/bpf" devices might not exist
    on your machine; AIX's tcpdump loads the driver and creates the
    devices if they don't already exist.  Our libpcap should do the
    same, and the configure script should detect that it's on an AIX
    system and choose BPF even if the devices aren't there.

(2) If libpcap doesn't compile on your machine when configured to use
    BPF, or if the workarounds fail to make it work correctly, you
    should send to [e-mail] a detailed bug report (if
    the compile fails, send us the compile error messages; if it
    compiles but fails to work correctly, send us as detailed as
    possible a description of the symptoms, including indications of the
    network link-layer type being wrong or time stamps being wrong).

    If you fix the problems yourself, please send to [e-mail]
    a patch, so we can incorporate them into the next release.

    If you don't fix the problems yourself, you can, as a workaround,
    make libpcap use DLPI instead of BPF.

    This can be done by specifying the flag:

       --with-pcap=dlpi

    to the "configure" script for libpcap.

If you use DLPI:

(1) 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.

(2) 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.

(3) There appears to be a problem in the DLPI code in some versions of
    AIX, causing a warning about DL_PROMISC_MULTI failing; this might
    be responsible for DLPI not being able to capture outgoing packets.
