Hey Peter,
   Yes, with "V" came new support for llc traffic, and the
potential for new issues.  I'll beef up the filter logic,
so that it corrects this problem.

The rtp issue will be addressed in 'W' which should come out
tomorrow, I hope.

Thanks!!!!

Carter

Subject: An ra oddity


	I have put up 2.0.0V and shown it our backbone (which has all
sorts
of odd stuff running on it) with ./argus_bpf -ifxp1 -w argus.log & 
When I filter with ra for udp I get udp as expected but also get the 
occasional novell SAP broadcast (which doesn't seem correct):

./ra -r argus.log -c -n udp

31 Jan 01 21:20:16    udp  142.58.245.106.137    ->
142.58.255.255.137   4
     0         386          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:16    udp  142.58.200.115.1462   ->
192.75.243.247.161   11
     0         1456         0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:15    llc   8:0:11:10:f5:b7.0xe0 ->
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.0xe0 4
     0         293          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:15    llc   8:0:11:10:f5:b7.gbl  ->
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.gbl  4
     0         290          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:15    nvl   8:0:11:10:f5:b7      ->  ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
4
     0         290          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:15    llc   8:0:11:10:f5:b7.0xaa ->
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff.0xaa 4
     0         300          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:18    udp   142.58.140.36.138    ->
142.58.140.255.138   2
     0         528          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:17    udp         0.0.0.0.68     ->   255.255.255.255.67
1
     0         342          0           INT

	It also looks to be deciding MS name service broadcasts are rtp
sometimes (I expect this is the over aggressive classification that was 
being discussed): 

31 Jan 01 21:20:21    udp  142.58.140.185.138    ->
142.58.140.255.138   1
     0         243          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:19    rtp   142.58.160.63.137    ->
142.58.160.255.137   3
     0         276          0           INT
31 Jan 01 21:20:20    udp  142.58.160.200.138    ->
142.58.255.255.138   1
     0         263          0           INT
