iwatchip:enabling sniffer

Hi!

In one of our servers running HPUX 11.11, we get the following message at the console, intermittently:

Sep 20 09:37:58 vmunix: NOTICE: iwatchip:enabling sniffer

Could any one let me know what this is about?

Thanks in advance.

Anoop --

This has been seen a few times on HP-UX but none of the hits in the DB seem to have an answer.

Per google, "iwatch", is an internet filtering software.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Ultimately I decided to ignore the error, and did not observe it later.
