No problem, the bypass is for performance reasons. No, I think you're seeing packets on lo, because the direct xmit calls the lo ndo handler directly as well (despite having no queue), but it's then pushed into the input path again and thus a normal sniffer will be able so see it from that side again. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "netsniff-ng" group.
