Re: Redirect from NIC to TAP

Thanks a lot for the info.

In retrospect, was there a way I could reach this conclusion myself
(no driver support)? I'm asking this since I'm relatively new to the
environment and we run various NICs from various vendors, and I would
like to know how to perform the "due diligence" myself before reaching
out?

Best
Radu
