Hi, That's true only if you are not hooked up to an Ethernet switch, unless the port you are attached to is a "monitor" port. I.e. monitoring the other ports that are in the same VLAN(s). Hmm! Again only true again for IP. Since the switch shall and will not send any of those packets if you are not on a monitor port. -- Michael Andersson Swemic NetOps Cell: +46-70 695 36 00 http://www.swemic.net Registred Linux user: 229633 On Thu, 6 Dec 2001 18:35:13 +0530 (IST) "Dharmendra.T" <dharmu@nsecure.net> wrote: > > Yes > It will detect if you are running the interface in the promiscous > mode.
