Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH]  vmxnet3: initialize receive mode correctly
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2014 10:50:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140725105037.26769945@haswell.linuxnetplumber.net> (raw)

The driver must listen to broadcast packets, like other devices.
Otherwise protocols like ARP won't work!
