Dear all,
Seems that the ARPQuerier does not differentiate broadcast IP packets
from unicast IP packets,
this way when it receives a broadcast packet it will send queries for
that broadcast IP address
which will never be replied. Can we solve this by adding several entries
in the _map[] table for
these special addresses before hand when the table is initiated? Such as
mapping between
255.255.255.255 and FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.
Kind regards,
Johan & Dagang
