Does the apple thunderbolt to ethernet dongle support promiscuous mode ?

Does the apple thunderbolt to ethernet dongle support promiscuous mode ?
I need to use the new Retina MBP as a professional laptop for work, and I need to use Etherreal. Etherreal needs the Ethernet card/dongle/chip to run in Promiscuous mode. I have heard that unblivably the thunderbolt Ethernet dongle does not support this, if so then the laptop will not pick all the packets on the wire... is this true ?

Hi Clinton,
Thanks for your reply, However the promiscuous mode function that I am after is a function of the Ethernet NIC hardware and driver not just the OS.
Wireshark allows the user to put network interface controllers that support promiscuous mode into that mode, in order to see all traffic visible on that interface, not just traffic addressed to one of the interface's configured addresses and broadcast/multicast traffic.
Anyone out there actually used/tested the thunderbolt Ethernet adapter to sniff traffic with wireshark (Ethereal), can you please  if it can run in promiscuous mode ?
Thanks.

  • Does the Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter work w/ W540?

    I have an external storage drive that relies on Firewire 800, or USB 2.0 - I'd prefer to use the Firewire! I discovered the Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter ( http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Thunderbolt-to-FireWire-Adapter/dp/B008RXYOKY ), but I haven't seen any clones for sale... Does anyone know if it will work with the W540 and Windows 7?

    Hi DIgitalsmear
    I bought one of this adapters to connect my firewire audio interface to my lenovo carbon X1 which has a thunderbolt out. And atm i have no proper connection going on, but i'm not yet sure whether it is because of the adapter or something else.
    greetings

  • Why does the apple iPad 1st gen not support Adobe flash player

    No camera icon

    Flash is not supported on any iOS device, and as Adobe have stopped development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
    In terms of the camera icon, the original iPad doesn't have any cameras on it, so there is no need for a camera app.

    When I try to uninstall my itunes I go to my control panel to remove the Apple "Application, Mobile Device, software support" then i get a pop up saying that "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" I cant find it. Its preventing me from re installing the new itunes.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:

    Does it go through properly this time?

  • Can a laptop with VGA output use the Apple Thunderbolt 27" display?

    I bought a 2011 Macbook Air and I'm thinking about upgrading my office monitor. The new Apple Thunderbolt 27" display comes to mind.
    However, I also have a Lenovo X201 with VGA output, which I would also like to connect to the Apple Thunderbolt 27" display sporadically.
    Will the VGA to mini-display port adapter work? If not, does there exist a VGA to mini-display port converter that will work and if so which one?

    You are thinking of that adapter backwards.  It is not VGA to MDP but is "Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter".  This means it will take video out of a a MDP connection and convert it to a VGA connection.  It will not go the other direction like you need.
    Sorry but that Lenovo just doesn't have the ability to connect to the new display.  If it had a HDMI video port like some other Lenovo models, you could adapt from that but I don't know of any VGA to Mini-DisplayPort/ThunderBolt adapters.
    Even if you were to use such an adapter, the video card in that laptop couldn't drive a 27" display at the native resolution so it would look very bad.
    One other option would be to use the Lenovo X200 docking station which has a full sized Display Port.  You would have to use a Display Port to Mini Display port adapter then you could attach the TB cable to it.  There is also a USB video replicator that has a DVI-I output then then yet another adapter to get to Mini-Display.
    However, both of these options would still be limited by the graphics card at 1920x1080 so it still wouldn't look good.

  • Does the Intel 82579LM NIC on the Portege R830 support Promiscuous mode?

    Hi,
    I've got a work laptop (Portege R830), which doesn't want to sniff packets. I've got it connected to a Netgear Hub (DS104), along with an older notebook, and then uplink to ADSL.
    Running a continuous ping to the default gateway and Wireshark on both devices and the other computer can see the pings from the Toshiba, but not vice-versa.
    The Toshiba is running as an Administrator account, has the Windows Firewall disabled, and my Symantec End Point Encryption disabled. I don't have any other AV to my knowledge.
    Does anyone have any ideas of services I should disable/enable, or knowledge of the features of this NIC?
    According to the Intel site "Yes, all currently marketed Intel PRO/100, Intel PRO/1000, Intel Gigabit, Intel PRO/10 Gigabit, and Intel 10 Gigabit adapters support Promiscuous mode. " But the Intel 82579 Gigabit Ethernet Controller is not in the list that follows on; http://www.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-004185.htm?wapkw=%28promiscuous%29
    Thanks for your time.

    Usually the firewall or Internet Security software blocks pings so perhaps try uninstalling Symantec completely. Just disabling it may not disable everything.
    Another thing to try is use a Static IP Address instead of DHCP. Disabling IPv6 or installing a newer LAN driver from the Intel website may also help.

  • Does the Apple TV work only on specific types of TV's?

    We are thinking of buying a new TV, because our current one has 3 random huge red lines going vertically through it. Anyway, I was looking at TVs just a minute ago, and I remembered the Apple TV. Well, there's something called a "Smart TV" which means it can use the internet for Netflix, YouTube, Pandora, AccuWeather, etc. Anyway, I was looking at the Apple TV.
    1) Does the Apple TV only work with like a certain size, company, type (ie HDTV, LTE or whatever, Plasma, etc), etc.?
    2) Does the Apple TV basically make a normal TV a smart tv? Does it allow internet and all that easily? Also, when watching movies on the Apple TV thing, will it play full screen? Will this only happen on certain TVs?
    Thanks!

    No not any more then Xbox or playstations does

  • Does the Apple Digital Av adapter Stream in 1080P so that my keynote presentations look better that streaming them through apple TV?

    Does the Apple Digital Av adapter Stream in 1080P so that my keynote presentations look better that streaming them through apple TV? I use Keynote and Apple TV to stream my Keynote presentations at work and the Picture does not look great and does not put the presetation in widscreen mode. Would the Apple Digital Av adapter fix that?

    The size on the screen should remain, but the quality should be better.

  • Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears?

    Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears? 

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
