I've done a tcpdump -p (non promisc) and was looking at the packets coming
in on the main interface (eth0). What I was seeing was all the packets,
including the vlan tagged packets for vlans 4, 5. This didn't seem right.
When I tcpdumped, the vlan interfaces, I received the correct stripped
packets.
I was wondering if I should see those packets on eth0 for the other vlans
when I execute tcpdump in the non-promiscuous mode? I was looking at the
code to see where the packets are being stripped out, but it's not clear
where that's happening. We're worried that packets leaking out of a
different system might be impacting our own system even though the default
interface should not be processing tagged packets.
