That disagrees with both the documentation and behaviour of every
version of tcpdump which I've encountered. tcpdump does use
promiscuous mode by default; -p disables it:
-p Don't put the interface into promiscuous mode.
Note that the interface might be in promiscuous
mode for some other reason; hence, `-p' cannot be
used as an abbreviation for `ether host {local-hw-
addr} or ether broadcast'.
