Hi,

I am making some feeble attempts in writing a network driver, a sort of
virtual host interface (I know about ifconfig alias - but this needs to
be done at the driver level).
I can't find enough information on the ifnet structure - mainly how I
can force the
interface to read all packets coming in.
I have tried a read call to a simple virtual interface driver that I
have written -but it doesn't seem to be accepting any packets.
Where am I going wrong? Is there any other way of doing this?
ifconfig alias won't solve my problem as this virtual host has to
represent aroun 1024 hosts.

Thanks,
Charu
