One de0 NIC works fine in a host. But if there are two ore more NICs (de0) in a router, multicasting is not working correctly anymore. In this particular case I have a Pentuim PC with two de0 interfaces. One of the interfaces is working fine. The other one is not transmitting any multicast messages at all (either signaling or data). After I use tcpdump (which turns the interface into promiscuous) I also receive multicast messages on this interface. Since erverything is working fine with two 3COM NICs in the PC it shouldn't be a problem caused by mrouted. For me it looks more like a problem in the de0 driver. Has anyone had similar experiences or knows a solution for this problem ?
