So it seems to me that my 'ATU miss' corresponds to your MISS and my 'ATU member' corresponds to your MISMATCH. Since I inject an entry with destination port vector (DPV) zero I get member violations after the first miss violation. > The HW I work with doesn't have the ability to generate such > notifications, but it can trap packets on MISS (no entry) or MISMATCH > (exists, but with different port).
