Gentlefolk,
As a new person to the list I have checked the archive and didn't locate an
answer.
We're Using VLANs to isolate traffic to VMs with a router/firewall-like process
to switch VLAN IDs to complete allowed communication. Only the router/firewall
instance of zLinux is grated trunked, promiscuous access to the vswitch. On the
router/firewall, as soon as we enable the first vconfig 'd interface for a vlan
we start seeing 18 (usually) copies of packets. As long as all eth1.x is down
things behave normally.
Other nodes on the vswitch see normal traffic.
Any suggestions on what we've mis-configured or what data to gather next?
