Hi everybody, I use the e1000 drivers for rtnet regularly without any problems. However, for a special project, we have a 4-port PCIe e1000 adapter (from Supermicro) that consists internally of a PLXTech PCIe - PCIe bridge and two dual-port e1000 chips. PCI ids are 8086:105e. This seems to be a 82571EB_COPPER, MAC: 82571
This very board does not response to ARP requests sent to the board from the outside (e.g. from another PC). Using a different e1000 NIC (e.g. PCI, PCIe) this works fine. By looking at the driver source code I found out, that - for what ever reason - some e1000 boards seems to be able to filter out ARP requests. Could this be the reason for this behaviour? Sending out ARP requests to the communication partners works fine, i.e. ARP responses are processed nicely. Any ideas on this strange issue? Thanks for all hints.
