Ah, OK, sorry I misunderstood your question.
AIX's tcpdump will turn it on for you.
It is set dynamically on AIX. The default is off but tcpdump for instance has a default of on, iptrace has a default of off but has a switch for on:
AIX Commands:
tcpdump:
Help -
-p Stops putting the interface into promiscuous mode. Note that the interface might be in promiscuous mode for some other reason; hence, -p cannot be used as an abbreviation for ether host {local-hw-addr} or ether broadcast.
iptrace:
Help -
-e Enables promiscuous mode on network adapters that support this function.
Depending on what you are trying to do, and how you want to do it, you might find some related useful info here:
pSeries and AIX Information Center
Or on any of the above links by searching for promisc in the search box on the left side of the window.
HTH.

ns_connredirect
Ns_ConnReturn(3aolserver) AOLserver Library Procedures Ns_ConnReturn(3aolserver)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Ns_ConnRedirect - Internally redirect a request to a new local url
SYNOPSIS
#include "ns.h"
int
Ns_ConnRedirect(conn, url)
ARGUMENTS
Ns_Conn conn (in) Pointer to open connection.
char *url (in) Pointer to string of local url.
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This routine can be used to internally redirect to a new, local url on the server. The url paramter specifies a path relative to the
server, i.e., without the leading "http://host:port" portion. The server will reset the Ns_Request structure in the open connection
pointed to by conn and restart connection handling, including authorization checks. The result is a standard AOLserver request procedure
result code, either from an underlying call to Ns_ConnRunRequest or the result of one of the authorization response routines such as
Ns_ConnReturnForbidden. Filter callbacks, if any, are not run again with the updated connection.
The Ns_ConnRedirect routine is used internally in the server to support the basic file serving code (i.e., "fastpath") to redirect to spe-
cific files when a directory is opened and by the Ns_RegisterRedirect routine to map standard reponse routines to user-provided local
url's.
EXAMPLE
The following example demonstrates redirecting to an ADP help page within a custom C-level request callback whenever a ?help=topic query
argument is present:
int
MyRequest(void *arg, Ns_Conn *conn)
{
Ns_Set *query = Ns_ConnGetQuery(conn);
/* Redirect to help.adp for /myrequest?help=topic calls. */
if (Ns_SetGet(query, "help")) != NULL) {
return Ns_ConnReturnRedirect(conn, "/help.adp");
}
... handle non-help requests ...
}
