+The following instructions are applicable to Tru64 UNIX
+(formerly Digital UNIX (formerly DEC OSF/1)) version 3.2 and 4.0.
+
+
+In order to use kernel packet filtering on this system, you have
+to configure it in such a way :
+
+Kernel configuration
+--------------------
+
+The packet filtering kernel option must be enabled at kernel
+installation. If it was not the case, you can rebuild the kernel
+after adding the following line in the kernel configuration file
+(/sys/conf/<HOSTNAME>):
+
+option PACKETFILTER
+
+Device configuration
+--------------------
+
+Devices used for packet filtering must be created thanks to
+the following command (executed in the /dev directory):
+
+./MAKEDEV pfilt
+
+Interface configuration
+-----------------------
+
+In order to capture all packets on a network, you may want to
+enable the promiscuous mode of the interface thanks to the
+pfconfig(1) command:
+
+pfconfig <network_device> +c +p
+
