Jens,
it smells like a switch with autolearning.
I would try it with a hub _in stead_ of the switch.
Sincerely,
Jan.
Hi,
The ARP response passes the switch, the hub was placed behind the switch
in order to check
wheter the switch drops the ARP response. It does not, I can see the ARP
responses using a
3rd machine (sniffer in the fig.) connected to that hub. So the switch
is not the point of
failure.

Additionally, when I look at the packet counters using 'ifconfig', the
counters for TX and
RX go up, although tcpdump does not show any incoming ARP response on
peth0. So the ARP
responses are received by the interface, but get dropped before coming
to tcpdump or xenbr0.
peth0 counters for errors are 0. In tcpdump for peth0 I can see the
outgoing ARP requests.
The only incoming packets I see are broadcasts from other machines
(router adv, other
machines' ARP reqs for different IP addresses, not related to the xen box)
Still clueless,
-Jens
