Hi
after some email exchange with Stephen Hemminger i decide to forward the question to netdev ml.
I'm using vmware 6 and bridged networking with interface eth1 (sky2 driver).
The brigde works only when eth1 has the physical connection enabled (another pc plugged in), so
i always need to have another pc running to have virtual networking.
with tcpdump i can see packets coming from virtual machines, but none
sent back.
With other drivers (some old 3com cards) i don't have this issue.
I wonder if it's possibile to have the sky2 interface always "alive" (as
ifconfig reports it up) in order to have the bridge working.
I looked for some ethtool options...but nothing...
i saw in the code the queue disable, but i would like to switch this
somehow runtime...
thanks for support
Patrizio
