-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-12110 2011-09-06 18:01:33 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : libpcap Product : Fedora 16 Version : 1.1.1 Release : 4.fc16 URL : http://www.tcpdump.org Summary : A system-independent interface for user-level packet capture Description : Libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network monitoring. Libpcap can provide network statistics collection, security monitoring and network debugging. Since almost every system vendor provides a different interface for packet capture, the libpcap authors created this system-independent API to ease in porting and to alleviate the need for several system-dependent packet capture modules in each application. Install libpcap if you need to do low-level network traffic monitoring on your network. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix capturing of fragmented ipv6 packets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #736009 - tcpdump icmp6 option can't catch icmpv6 package larger than 1460 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=736009 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
