<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to use filters in conjunction with saving the filtered packets to a file, using windump, but when I do, the filters seem to get ignored. Here is an example of what I am trying:
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">c:\windump -i 1 -s 0 -C 100 -w test -W 40 !host 192.168.10.2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I use this, there are still packets to/from that host in the capture file. On the other hand, if I use:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">windump -i 1 !host 192.168.10.2 <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">…on the command line, I can see the packets to/from that host filtered out. To be clear, if I remove the ! from the command line, I see traffic to/from that host, if I add the ! back in, I don’t, and there is a constant stream of traffic
to/from this host.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The documentation I have been able to find seems to indicate that this is legal and I don’t get any syntax errors. What am I missing?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
