Not sure what you ment under "a new kind of **promiscuous mode**" I am not sure, dimention is already here as "vlanfilter", thinking if these two dimentions are intersecting: -promisc ->> filters out non mine frames (these that as in ether dst not my address) parametrized by: my MAC(s) when ON clearly required to be OFF for bridge functioning, as it forwards packates vlanhwfilter ->> filters out VLANs I am not interested in parametrized by: my VLAN(s) for bridge it is fine to be either ON or OFF as far as VLAN(s) are propagated for me sounds more logical not connect one to another. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
