Hi, multicast to unicast is a recent addition to the kernel. Your kernel refuses the setting with EBUSY, whereas ENOTSUPP would be expected if your kernel or driver does not implement this. There had been a patch draft around that errorneously reported EBUSY but that draft had not been accepted upstream. So which kernel version and driver is this trace from? Regards, M. Braun Am 29.
