Thank you very much and its working on HP 11. However, I noticed that I did
not receive any outbound packet. In the readme file, it also mentioned that
test show no outbound packet. Is there anything that I can do to see
outbound data, or this is just how HP DLPI implemented?

Thank you

Dannis

Only by coincidence was it the NMID on 10.20. It is PPA in 11.0 I
believe.

Although think that the LBL version wanted the major number in the
dl_info_ack data to match the major number of /dev/dlpi, which, for
most, but not all interfaces would be the case. For some older
interfaces (old 10Mbit/s-only core interfaces come to mind, perhaps one
or two of the 100BT interfaces) the "please oh please oh please don't
kill LLA or our licensing apps that we haven't migrated in the five
years since you said it was going away wont work" meant that those
drivers had a major number different from that of /dev/dlpi.

Also, the "dlpiN" should not be confused with the /dev/dlpiN device
files that one will find - those are different things entirely.

Indeed, a reasonably contemporary version from www.tcpdump.org is the
place to be - it will grok the "ifconfig names" and will deal with
things when APA (Auto Port Aggregation - aka trunking) is installed.
