Description Eugene Grosbein 2006-08-31 07:10:12 UTC 
	ng_bpf(4) teaches to use tcpdump(1) to generate raw BPF
        instructions. However, the exact command line does not
	include	'-p' option. This may activate promiscous mode on
	first ethernet interface, if any. This is not needed and
	should not happen.

How-To-Repeat: 	Use example from bg_bpf(4) manual page and see pair of
	'promiscuous mode enabled/promiscuous mode disabled' messages
	in the kernel log.

  I'd say this is a bug in tcpdump(1), not a problem in the
manual page. tcpdump(1) doesn't need an interface to process
-d option.
