Hi,

I've set up a dual-homed host for monitoring part of a network. One
interface is meant to be used for management purposes while the other
just monitors the
traffic. 
Now, due to the way this machine is hooked up to the net (one port is
attached to a 
mirror port of a switch), it sometimes receives ARP Responses on the
monitor interface for ARP Queries that it sent out on the other
interface.

Is there a way under FreeBSD to tell the kernel to ignore such packets ?


Thanks,


Thore
