Re: Weird Ethernet broadcast issue.
...And you are not port mirroring (SPAN) the VLAN to this port for monitoring? What kind of switch is running this segment? You state no IP or IPv6 is configured on this port, I assume you mean the NIC that you are capturing on has no IP protocol configuration so it can not initiate any traffic itself and should not be the destination of any traffic. |

| This is a basic Layer 2 Switch it is an Old (so i thought till i looked it up) D-Link DSS-16+ Compact 16port switch (»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···17111012), these packet are going to the neighboring switch and flooding it as well (a Linksys 5 Port GigE Switch), These switch are nothing but dumb switches (Not Hubs). ALL Ports receive the traffic. |
