[coLinux-users] [gentryx@wintermute.local: bridged networking arp proxying]

[Andreas <ge...@gm...>]

Sorry,
of course i meant, the switch will close the port, if it notices any arp
traffic emerging from my port containing an unregistered mac address.

Thanks in advance,
Andreas Schaefer

Hi,
does the coLinux/WinPcap bridged networking setup use "arp proxying" or
"ethernet broadcast forwarding"? And, if it is just forwarding, how much
time (approx.) would it take, to implement proxying?

The background: the machine i'm using colinux with is connected to a switch
with "port security". This means, my machines port will always be closed, if
the switch notices any arp traffic emerging from my port.

Regards,
Andreas Schaefer
