I also tried googling and read similar posts in the discussion lists but not able to get the frames in the l2fwd app. I've created the VMs using Oracle VirtualBox. If anyone has tried using VirtualBox please let me know how to resolve this. I tried running in both the ways but it didnt work: (1) Configuration inside a VM: Traffic gen ------> eth0 -------> L2fwd app -----> eth1 (2) Traffic gen ----> eth0 ----> VM (eth0) -----> L2fwd app -----> VM (eth1) Regards Shankari.V
