Re: RE: devnp-e1000.so promiscuous mode?
Hi,
in e1000/init.c:i82544_init() I can see that i82544_enable() is called which sets the promiscuous bits in the rctl
register. However, these settings seem to be undone by the following i82544_filter() call.
Regards,
Peter

In io-pkt the stack sets promiscuous mode in response
to certain conditions: setting up a bridge, the BPF
BIOCPROMISC ioctl... The latter might be what you
want.
