That config is a user level config, which is fine.  Grid uses several 
"unknown" ethernet types, namely 7fff, 7ffe, 7ffd; tcpudmp doesn't know how to 
print these packets.  Grid comes with elements that do, try adding Print 
elements to the config.  I think you're seeing what you would expect.  For 
more detailed questions someone else will need to help.
