System: NetBSD capsicum.wsrcc.com 1.6ZF NetBSD 1.6ZF (WSRCC_ATHLON) #1: Sun Nov 16 18:47:58 PST 2003 wolfgang@capsicum.wsrcc.com:/var/obj/netbsd/sys/arch/i386/compile/WSRCC_ATHLON i386

>Description:

	mrouted and ethereal (from pkgsrc) disagree on what
	constitutes a valid packet.

>How-To-Repeat:

	create an empty /etc/mrouted.conf file
	ethereal &
	<start it running via ^K>
	mrouted -d 3

	In ethereal expand the multicast packets marked "DVMRP" in the
	display window.  The packet shown are marked as garbled, and
	sure look garbled when compared to the RFC.

	(one can apply a multicast filter to make it easier to find
	the packets.  ip.dst == 224.0.0.0/8 )

	It is not entirely clear which program is at fault.  I don't
	have a multicast peer to test against.  I was just wondering
	if multicast worked at my ISP and getting no reply from
	mrouted I tried to see if the other side was sending any
	packets.
