Re: Ethernet padding in tcpdump captures?

Unless Linux is removing the padding before the packet gets to a PF_PACKET socket, I would expect to see padding for short Ethernet packets in captures on Linux, at least if not done on the "any" device. For *outgoing* packets, you probably won't see the padding, but for *incoming* packets, I'd expect to see the padding on all OSes.
I was kinda hoping for masses of people screaming that they had never seen Ethernet padding in a capture from a Linux machine.. Oh well, I will ask the netfilter people again :-) Thanks! -- Andreas Sikkema ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
