IPTraf + vlan : working


IPTraf: fix vlan no traffic

IPTraf src.rpmiptraf-3.0.0-77.src.rpm
IPTraf i586.rpm (OpenSuse 10.2/10.3): iptraf-3.0.0-77.i586.rpm
IPTraf x86_64.rpm (OpenSuse 10.2/10.3) : iptraf-3.0.0-77.x86_64.rpm

This patch is fixing the problem of iptraf 3.0.0 for vlan interfaces. Becouse the encapsuled frames arrives on the real device, those are dencapsuled by kernel (aka 8021q module) and sended to virtual interface vlanVID or ethX.VID. When the packet arrives to the virtual device they are allready dencapsuled from 802.1q and they accting like and normal ETHERNET interface.

This patch clears the VLAN code and set the type of a VLAN interface to EHTERNET. You can find the patch in src.rpm named iptraf-3.0.0-vlan.patch or click here to download the patch.
