Re: Strange results from unpack when trying to decode OSPF LSA's from the OSPF MIB

Where are you getting the dumps (with Ethereal) exactly? Do you get them at the source or at the destination machine? 10 indicates private addresses, are you sure there's nothing doing some smart NATting somewhere between the routers and you?

Flavio
perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf

Don't fool yourself.

Hi, Ethereal is running on my local machine. I do an SNMP walk of the routers mib from there. The routers belong in private test networks, hence the use of private address space. I'm not aware of any NAT going on and even if there was it shouldn't affect IP addresses with 10 as any of the octets. regards, Matt	[reply]

I would only be sure that those values aren't changed along the way by some "smart" node. If your local machine is directly connected to the routers this shouldn't be the problem, anyway. Flavio perl -ple'$_=reverse' <<<ti.xittelop@oivalf Don't fool yourself.	[reply]
