[PATCH RFC net-next 05/13] selftests: forwarding: add TCPDUMP_EXTRA_FLAGS to lib.sh

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For some use-cases we may want to change the tcpdump flags used in
tcpdump_start().  For instance, observing interfaces without the PROMISC
flag, e.g. to see what's really being forwarded to the bridge interface.
