Ethernet Card in promiscuous mode

Hello,
I have a Powerbook G4 15p (1.25GHz) and I want to capture network trafic on a cisco trunk port.
It works fine but I have no informations concerning vlan tags : is it possible to configure the Ethernet driver in promiscuous mode ?
Best Regards,
Guillaume
Edit : same problem as describe here : http://support.intel.com/support/network/sb/cs-005897.htm

I was thinking of a network driver option : How can I know what sort of network chipset is on my powerbook ?
If I look to /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns, I can see this :
Apple3Com3C90x.kext AppleDP83816Ethernet.kext AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext
AppleBCM440XEthernet.kext AppleGMACEthernet.kext AppleRTL8169Ethernet.kext
AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext AppleIntel8254XEthernet.kext Apple_DEC21x4Ethernet.kext
AppleBMacEthernet.kext AppleIntel8255x.kext
and there is the possibility to update an xml config file on some driver modules
Here is the result of my kextstat :
34 3 0x2dd90000 0x1f000 0x1e000 com.apple.iokit.IONetworkingFamily (1.5.0) <6 5 4 3 2>

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 ?
Regs Mark.

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.

UCCX on VMWare needs ethernet promiscuous mode?

Hello all,
Just noticed something in the vmware host logs:
2013-06-08T16:29:52.001Z cpu20:14694)etherswitch: L2Sec_EnforcePortCompliance:153: client ccx.eth0 requested promiscuous mode on port 0x4000024, disallowed by vswitch policy
And that's expected, because the default configuration of the vswitch denies ethernet promiscuous mode.
Now the question is - does the virtual UCCX need promiscuous mode at all? I would expect to see it as a specific note in the documentation if it would. The docwici for UC on UCS is quite detailed and it get's bigger and bigger every day.
I suppose the promiscuous mode is related somehow to call monitoring and recording, but is it really a requirement? I am using Desktop Based monitoring and recording. UCCX version 9.0.2.10000-71

Hi,
Please check your recording options.
If it set not to spanless recording,you'll have allow promiscuous mode and rspan vlans.

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.

How to Set HyperV NIC in Promiscuous Mode

Is there any way to set up a NIC on a virtual HyperV guest in promiscuous mode?
I want to try and run a web filtering product on a VM. Wireshark does not indicate that it is capturing all traffic.
I have my switch port mirrored already and it works with a regular box but not with the VM.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy

I was able to make wireshark capture all the packets.
I followed this post:
   http://fixmyitsystem.com/2013/08/Remote-Wireshark.html
The only diference is that use and Internal Virtual Network to connect from the
guest to the host.
My hyper-v host IP, for this network is 169.254.107.1 (check yours by doing ipconfig)
and the Guest is 169.254.107.20
Steps:
- Just get rpcapd (http://nmap.org/dist/nmap-6.40-win32.zip).
- Unzip it and install it on the hyper-v host
    Open PowerShell
    Enter-pssession Coremachine
    Silently install: winpcap-nmap-4.02.exe /S
- Next up you will have to create a firewall exception for
    this to be reachable from the management machine.
    netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Remote WinPcap" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=any remoteip=169.254.107.20
    (to turn on the rule) netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="Remote WinPcap" new enable=yes
    (to turn off the rule) netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="Remote WinPcap" new enable=no
- Navigate to C:\Program Files\WinPcap
    To start to packet capture service use
        .\rpcapd.exe -p 2002 -n
- Get the GUID of the network card you want to use in WireShark
      wmic nic where PhysicalAdapter="TRUE" get Description,GUID,MACAddress,Name,NetConnectionID
- on wireshark
    Select Capture Options
    Click Manage Interfaces
    Select Local Interfaces tab and check the Hide box next to all of them
    Select remote Interfaces tab
    Click add button
    For the host specify the hostname or IP Address
        (I use an internal network to conect to the host)
         My host IP is 169.254.107.1 and the Guest is 169.254.107.20
    The port default is 2002 (set with the -p switch earlier)
    Null authentication as set with the -n switch earlier
    OK
    You should now see a number of interfaces added
    Click Close
- There will be a buffer size warning but it can be ignored, and hey presto,
    you are capturing packets from a remote non GUI machine.
    The process from here on in is the same as you would use WireShark with
    local traffic capture.

PCI Ethernet card problem.....please help!

Hi everyone, I intalled yesterday a PCI Ethernet card (10/100) on my PowerMac G5.
!0.5 immediately recogenize it and setted it with DHCP mode but internet looks to be slow so I chaged the configuration with static IP but with out any good result.
Internet works but very slooly while the network works great with (10/100 card and fine with integrated gigabit lan).
Someone could help me to understand while the PCI ethernet card doesn't work fine with internet? It's directly connected on a Netgear firewall routrer.....
thanks to everyone

But it could be unsupported the second ethernet on a powermac g5?
No, the fact that it shows up is proof that it works.
What Speeds are you getting with it?...

Also, in System Preferences>Network>Show>Ethernet 2>Ethernet tab>Configue:>Manually, try setting the speed lower & Duplex to Half-Duplex, restart required, test that setting.

Ethernet card dying?

Hi,
I'm having strange problems with my built-in ethernet interface. I lose this interface in a seemingly random fashion. I notice because I am suddenly disconnected from the internet. The only thing that will 'fix' this is unplugging/replugging the ethernet cord, and just recently I have to do this several times in a row.
When I get disconnected, there is no 'Built-in Ethernet' in the 'Network' preference pane (ie, not even the red dot). I take this to mean that the machine can't detect its existence, let alone communicate with it. I'll look in the system profiler next time this happens to see if it is found there.
I first noticed this behavior about 8 months ago. It happened very infrequently. Now, it is a daily occurrence. If the pattern continues, it will soon be an hourly occurrence.
My impression is that the ethernet card is dying, which will be expensive to replace. Before I consider doing this, are there any other diagnoses among this crowd? Any tips/advice?
Thanks in advance.

Its the 12' 1.5 GHz model.
The ethernet cord is definitely not the problem. That was the first thing I checked.
Very recently, I used fsck in single-user mode to tackle some non-related problems. Turns out the problems I was experiencing had to do with software calling an obsolete OSX function (I know that from looking at the syslog). Anyways, this doesn't have anything to do with the ethernet problem. Remember that the ethernet problem started many months ago.

Enable monitor/promiscuous mode on Cisco Atheros AR5001X+

I have a Cisco Aironet Atheros AR5001X+ wireless card installed on an HP laptop running Ubuntu 8.10. The card is working and I would like to know how to enable monitor/promiscuous mode on it so that I can use wireshark to capture network traffic at work. I would also like to know if I can enable the card in monitor/promiscuous mode in Windows XP and how? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Ethernet card - is it my problem

I am trying to put OS9 on a firewire drive and am a little rusty.
It boots fine but I am not on the internet. I have an ethernet card as the original one is nonfunctional. Is this a problem.
I am using a G4 Quicksilver which connects fine on X.
I am using a router on cable modem. I have DHCP checked on the TCP control panel and have not entered a DNS address.
Any help appreciated.
Lewis

Hi, Lewis -
Okay, I see - you are trying to set up OS 9 to connect via etherent to the web, rather than trying to install OS 9 on a firewire drive.
Setting the "Configure via" mode to "Use DHCP Server" will result in blanks for the addresses (IP, subnet, and router), until the server can be contacted and supplies them; on mine the Client address remains blank at all times.
Apparently the blockage is in reaching the server.
Your QuickSilver's built-in ethernet port is auto-switching, and so when using that there is no need to be particular about whether you are using a Crossover or a Patch type cable to connect to the end device. However, if the new (added) ethernet card does not have an auto-switching port, and if the router does not, then it would make a difference.
If that is the case (neither has auto-switching ports), then if the router and modem are separate items you should use a Patch type cable. But, if they are the same piece of hardware, you would then need to use a Crossover type cable.
Article #42717 - Apple products that require an Ethernet Crossover cable
Ethernet Cable: Color Coding Standard
Other things -
AppleTalk can sometimes interfere with gaining a sucessful ethernet connection. In those cases, just turning AppleTalk off may not be sufficient - it can be quite tenacious about hanging onto a port. The solution for that is to set AppleTalk to use a different port. You can make that setting in the AppleTalk control panel.
Be sure that both the extensions named Shared Library Manager and Shared Library Manager PPC are enabled in Extensions Manager. Ditto all extensions whose names includes Open Transport or OpenTpt. If you need to enable anything, restart to make the change active.
Try throwing away the file ASLM Preferences (it can be found in the Preferences folder in System Folder). Empty the Trash, then restart. ("ASLM" = "Apple Shared Library Manager")

Promiscuous mode and "Overlook-Fing" problems

Anyone else having problems setting their en0 to promisc? I'm fighting with trying to get fing to work right but it's only seeing my own computer. I'm pretty sure it's because I can't seem to be able set my ethernet card to promisc, but that seems to be broken since my upgrade to SL.
Any help out there?
Cheers.

You are right that multicast is only meant to work for a specific range of addresses, but the address you mention looks more like a MAC address than an IP address. IPv6 would use up to eight groups of 4 character hex numbers.
The correct IPv4 address range for multicast group addresses is 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 or FF00::/8 for IPv6. The LabVIEW multicast VIs adhere strictly to that range as far as I could find (but LabVIEW doesn't support IPv6).
I find the requirement to manipulate the MAC address to make an interface multicast capable a very strange thing. The MAC address is meant to stay fixed (although there exist tools for most NIC manufactureres to change their MAC address).
As to what Wireshark does with a NIC, not much really! :-)
It's the underlaying PCAP driver that Wireshark uses that does all kinds of complicated things to the NIC in order to set it into promiscious mode. That may as well have a side effect on the TCP/IP stack in how to treat multicast packets.

G5 Can't See Gigabit Ethernet Card

Some months back, I installed a gigabit ethernet card into my G5. It worked fine for a few months, then stopped working with a message: The cable for PCI Ethernet Slot 3, Port 2 is not plugged in. I wasn't working on the project that required that connection, so I just let it go. Now I need to connect to a different gigabit switch. I installed a new D-Link card into the same slot as before - same result. I moved the D-Link card to a different slot - and got the same error - still referring to Slot 3. Just for kicks, I installed the old card back into slot 2 (the one above the video card). Same error - and no mention of finding two cards or of anything in the other slots. It seems as if somehow all of the PCI slots are being ignored.
Running the System Profiler, I get a "No Information Found" for PCI Cards. None of the lights on either ethernet card come on. Any ideas? Everything else on the machine seems to be working correctly - the built-in ethernet is fine. There are a lot of drives connected to the system (4 on the FireWire 800, 1 on FW 400, 4 on USB). Is there some way to force a re-scan of the PCI bus? or turn it on?
Thanks!!

Thomas -
Yes - I tried swapping slots. A gigabit card worked fine in slot 3 for several months. It stopped working - I figured it was the card that was th eproblem. I have since replaced the card, and then moved the new one to a different slot. The Network control panel still reports a card in slot 3, even though there is nothing in slot 3. The new card is in slot 4 (and just for kicks the old card is in slot 2). Neither of these is recognized by the the System Profiler or the network control panel.

If you are searching the registry, check for the "Senforce" string. It should be at HKLM\Software\Senforce
Try running the install program for the ZSC with the following command line:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1"
If you've specified an uninstall password, try this one instead:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1 STUIP=password"" (please note the double quote at the end)
Let me know if that helped you.

Ethernet card no longer showing in ifconfig [solved]

Hey,
Normally I don't have any problems with my networking, but this morning my wireless decided not to work. I haven't made made any changes in the past couple of days, so unsure what has caused it. Last Syu was on Thursday and every day including up until last night was fine.
So spent a while trying stuff out and stressing my tiny little brain for ideas, quick version is I did this:
netcfg: said interface didn't exist.
ifconfig: didn't list the interface (wireless is usually eth1)
lsmod: confirmed the module (ipw2200) was loaded
lspci: confirmed the card was there
After copying the output of the above commands plus the obligatory rc.conf onto usb to move to this machine (and just before pushing <submit> on a much larger post than this :-) I decided to check the mac address listed in ifconfig with what is on the sticker under my machine. Voila! My wireless has actually moved to eth0. OK, that's that solved. (Wish I checked that first though...)
But that means that the reason that my wireless card is now eth0 instead of eth1 is because my old-skool wired ethernet card is no longer there to be numero 0. Why isn't it working? lsmod shows that the tg3 module is loading (it's an Intel card with Broadcom chipset in a Thinkpad T43) , but it no longer shows up in ifconfig. lspci is not showing it (see below), only the wireless card comes up. Does this mean the hardware is borken? What else can I do to check the card?

Yeah, doesn't give me anything about the ethernet card, but does show the wireless one. No, hang on, just found it. Hmmm, didn't see it before, but I was grepping for 'net' then.
$ dmesg | grep -i eth
eth1: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95751M) rev 4101] (PCI Express) MAC address 00:12:34:56:78:9a
eth1: attached PHY is 5750 (10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet) (WireSpeed[1])
eth1: RXcsums[1] LinkChgREG[0] MIirq[0] ASF[0] TSOcap[1]
eth1: dma_rwctrl[76180000] dma_mask[64-bit]
OK, so it is at eth1 now, that makes sense since I put ipw2200 right at the beginning and tg3 right at the end of the MODULES array in rc.conf to avoid the system getting crossed up while trying load them too close together. Thanks B, so at least we know something is happening at boot time.
Btw, my assumption is that ifconfig shows hardware once it is loaded correctly, is that right? But apart from the modules, what else do I need to do to get it showing up in ifconfig?

Ethernet Card Not being Detected on my iMac 27Inch (Mid2010)

Hello,
I have only had my iMac for a couple of months, and it appears to have developed a fault. I have a network router, and a network cable is plugged in however, the Network Panel keeps reading as "Cable: Unplugged". It is not, i can assure you.
When I got into the About This Mac > System Profiler, it has "This computer does not appear to have any PCI Ethernet cards installed." under the Ethernet Card option
I'm currently on Wireless (very skechty), and that also keeps dropping out even though the router is less a foot from the iMac.
Any Solutions or Advise please?
Thanks Phill C

I have the same problem after I installed LION on my imac 27" (Late 2010). It was working for few days and then after I restarted my computer my network card just went dead. Since I have several partitions I can boot back to Snow Leopard and it shows me ethernet just fine. So it means that LION has bugs and many bugs from what I can tell. It is wide spread problem and not sure if apple is doing anything about htis.

Ethernet card issue...can't get rid of self-assigned IP

Hi folks,
I am using an circa 2005 iMac G5 PPC desktop with 10.5.8. I am trying to connect the iMac to my Time Capsule via ethernet cable, but seem to be having problems with my ethernet card. When I plug into the TC ethernet port, the TC drive, does not mount and I cannot access the worldwide web.
When I go to System Preferences --> Networking, the tab on the left for ethernet connection shows a green dot, says "self-assigned IP" and the status says "connected" PRIOR TO CONNECTING THE ETHERNET CABLE TO THE TIME CAPSULE. It shows a "self-assigned" IP (DHCP selected) of 169.254.69.249, even though I know my TC is 10.0.1.1. Turning the ethernet off then back on, renewing the DHCP lease, nothing seems to be able to make this 169 IP address go away. The wireless connection to the TC is just fine... everything does what it should, I just can't get the ethernet cable connection to work.
Out of curriosity, I went to the System Profiler, and on the network tab it shows ethernet IPv4 169.254.69.249 (name en0).
I know it's not the Time Capsule, as I connected my laptop to it just fine via ethernet. The TC was IP 10.0.1.1 and it assigned 10.0.1.5 to my laptop (I have a variety of devices on my network), and I was able to transfer data and access the internet with no issues whatsoever.
I live in an 32 story apartment with a built-in ethernet network and ISP included in my rent. It's pretty nice, high speed. I connect from the wall to the Time Capsule via ethernet (circle dot connection port, so I know I have the right port), and then wirelessly out to a couple of laptops, a couple of Airport Express, and of course my desktop.
Bottom line, I think the ethernet card on iMac G5 desktop has gone bad: A few questions:
(1) Any ideas what may be wrong? Has anyone seen this self-assigned IP thing that won't go away?
(2) Any ideas how to fix it?
(3) How much will it cost? It may be time to replace my 6-year old desk top computer.
Thanks, Andy

I've swapped out several cables still with no luck, and the current cable definitely has 8 pins and worked with my laptop, so I'm confident it's not the cable. Also, the Time Capsule seems to be OK, because it too worked with my laptop using the same port. The only variable that doesn't seem to be cooperating is my desktop computer.
Also, I have tried to manually assign an IP consistent with the network & appropriate subnet mask. It seems to take the IP address manually, but still I can't get internet access, and can't ping the Time Capsule in network utility either.
Finally, when I connect the desktop directly to my wall outlet, taking the router out of the equation entirely, network diagnostics shows ethernet failure...
Does that sound like a bad ethernet card?
What does it take to replace an ethernet card in an iMac G5?
Cheers, Thanks, Andy
