RE: Linktype 113 not decoded

["BALDWIN, BILL (SBCSI)" <wb7192 () sbc com>]

Please explain.  I also don't understand why Snort/Barnyard would be
having a problem, but tcpdump and Ethereal don't.  To further clarify,
the fibre interfaces are defined as:

UP BROADCAST RUNNING PROMISC MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

-bill




Looks like you're using cooked sockets (Linux SLL) to acquire the data 
and Barnyard doesn't know how to process them.  You'd have to add a 
layer 2 decoder for linux SLL traffic before Barnyard will recognize 
those packets.
