Hi, We have an ethernet host & many pseudo ethernet interfaces configured. Suppose I send a packet to pseudo ethernet interface. The reply from pseudo ethernet interface is sent through the physical interface. This response, has the IP address of the physical interface instead of the IP address of Pseudo Ethernet Interface. So, the host which sent a packet to pseudo ethernet interface, is discarding this packet because of the IP address. Can anybody tell me why this is happening & suggest some way to correct it? I guess this is happening because we bind the socket to INADDR_ANY. Is that right???
