For ethernet, the header will simply contain the Destination and Source MAC addresses + a code to define the remainder of the packet. 0800 for IP, 86dd for IPv6, 0806 for ARP. A martian is detected when the source MAC address has an associated IP address not expected on that interface. This usually means there is a misconfigured system on the LAN. -- If you can't laugh at yourself, others will gladly oblige. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
