Re: TCPDUMP Filter don't work :(

Hello MC,

I would try specifying the filter in a single statement something like
udp[8:2] != 0x8004. Or you could add another ! character before the
second udp statement so that both are negated.

Hope this helps.

Hiya,

I have just started playing with filters within TCPDUMP and am a little
confused ....

I do NOT want to log RTP traffic on my network, but want to log everything else.
RTP runs over UDP, The fist two bytes in the PAYLOAD are always the same (this
is the RTP Header), and it has the hex value 80 and 04.

I have used the follwing filter to look at the first 2 bytes AFTER the UDP
packet (byte 8 and 9), UDP packets are always 8 Bytes. (so it's kinda fooling
the app)

"!udp[8] = 0x80 and udp[9] = 0x04"

And it doesn't work .... BUT what's really weird.....
if I remove the 'NOT' operator (!) it works just fine, capturing ALL the RTP
traffic ONLY!

Any help would be really appreciated, I must be doing something real stupid.
Cheers
MC
