Hmmmm...if I try and ping the NetBSD pvc0 interface, tcpdump shows me this:
13:59:43.581195 arp-#8
0013 0800 0000 0008 0400 0000 c0a8 0a02
13:59:58.581883 arp-#8
0013 0800 1400 0008 0400 0000 4700 0580
ffe1 0000 00f1 150b ab00 2048 0609 8a00
c0a8 0a02
14:00:13.582479 arp-#8
0013 0800 0000 0008 0400 0000 c0a8 0a02
14:00:28.583156 arp-#8
0013 0800 0000 0008 0400 0000 c0a8 0a02
I'm trying to ping 192.168.10.1 from 192.168.10.2.
I also saw one of these:
pvc0: recv'd invalid LLC/SNAP frame [vp=0,vc=100]
Hmm, how would one write an ARP server for ATM or find docs on what needs
to happen for one to work ?
