Summary 0000732: bmon on solaris 8 will not use multicast packets for network multicast packets
Description On solaris 8 bmon will not display other hosts broadcasting bmon multicast packets. I have confirmed with tcpdump that the multicat packets are arriving. I use the following command for the slave device:
bmon -o null -O distribution
I use the following command for the master:
bmon -I distribution:multicast

I can see the multicast packets on the wire, but the bmon application is ignorring them.

I just compiled from source for 2.0.1 and it still is not displaying the other hosts sending multicast packets.

Interesting, it should work.

Does \"bmon -I distribution\" work?

Nope. This appears to be a bmon problem. Not a distribution problem. When I compiled from source I am getting the same response. I am wondering if this is a patch level thing. Does it work for you?

I reproduced the problem here too. But it seems to be a Solaris specific problem, because it works on FreeBSD. I will get in contact with Thomas Graf (the author of bmon).

bmon 2.1.0 is released, but it does not compile yet on Solaris. I\'m on contact with the bmon autor.

I'm closing this bug, because it is not a packaging bug.
