This is not as bad as it sounds, as with moder switches we won't get significantly more traffic anyway unless someone floods network with video broadcast, in which case grub is probably not the right place to fix it. > > Also firmware is free to implement filter using promiscuous mode, so it may well be what we end up doing anyway. > > And i386 did it all the time. I do not know how wide testing it received, but nobody complained about problems due to promiscuous. > Josef's firmware apparently doesn't work with promiscuous.
