[Click] Nsclick promisc mode

Hello,

In the nsclick user manual (p11) there is a  simple bridge example
with the following click script.
"
FromSimDevice(eth0, 4096) -> Queue -> ToDump(eth0.txt) -> ToSimDevice(eth1);
FromSimDevice(eth1, 4096) -> Queue -> ToDump(eth1.txt) -> ToSimDevice(eth0);
"

I tried it out, but it doesn't work because the bridge can only
forward packets who a broadcast address.  So I thought by enabling
promiscous mode the bridge example.

Unfortunately nsclick's FromSimDevice doesn't support promiscous mode.
 Has anyone an idea to solve this problem of promiscous mode?

Thanks,
Letor Nico
