tcpdump works fine for connection from/to outside but don't display anything when using ethernet address [root@f16asx ~]# ifconfig -a lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:37237 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:37237 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:4561605 (4.3 MiB) TX bytes:4561605 (4.3 MiB) p3p1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:29:DC:02:F3 inet addr:192.168.23.32 Bcast:192.168.23.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: 2001:6f8:3bc:23:20c:29ff:fedc:2f3/64 Scope:Global inet6 addr: fe80::20c:29ff:fedc:2f3/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1352461 errors:1 dropped:176 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1957281 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:142615102 (136.0 MiB) TX bytes:758686762 (723.5 MiB) Interrupt:18 Base address:0x2000 [root@f16asx ~]# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.23.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 p3p1 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1002 0 0 p3p1 192.168.23.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 p3p1 [root@f16asx ~]# tcpdump -n -i p3p1 port 6543 tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on p3p1, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes >From another console : [asx@f16asx nsweb]$ telnet 192.168.23.32 6543 Trying 192.168.23.32...

If I do the same from another host on the local network or if I try to connect to another host or if I use "lo" the loopback and 127.0.0.1 instead , I can see the traffic ! It look like pcap don't want to capture packet that stay inside the the host, except for "lo". I have no FW rules and SELinux is disabled !
