Hi Kiselev, What's the firmware version you used? Did you try testpmd?
I tried testpmd with X710 on my side, the steps are: testpmd> set fwd rxonly testpmd> set verbose 1 testpmd> start testpmd> mac_addr add 0 00:00:5E:00:01:0A testpmd> stop testpmd> start After that, packets with destination 01:00:5E:00:00:12 still can be received.
