Hello list, Working with a user-space TCP-IP, I tried to setup a local bridge between two taps, each tap being driver by a user-space client and server.
user-space <-> TAP0 <-> BRIDGE0 <-> TAP1 <-> user-space I am interestingly stuck at the ARP discovery phase. When the client send its ARP request, the server receives it and replies. However, the client never gets the reply back. Some research indicated that since the client is getting an echoed version of its request, the bridge learns its address preventing the reply from being forwared. Would my understanding be correct? If so, is there any way to correct this behavior? Thanks, xavier
