[linux-dvb] MAC filter



Hello,

I'm working with the latest driver, a WinTV-Nova card and a RedHat 7.3 system. I've a suscription with NETSYSTEM for accessing the Internet over satellite.

The problem I've is that the dvb0_0 network interface receives all the NETSYSTEM transport stream not just the packets destined to me, see my dvb0_0 interface with just 15 minutes uptime:

 

[root@SLIMDSAT root]# ifconfig dvb0_0
dvb0_0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:D0:5C:00:54:CA
          inet addr:192.168.238.238  Bcast:192.168.238.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:4096  Metric:1
          RX packets:7637586 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
          RX bytes:1861038504 (1774.8 Mb)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
          Base address:0x1c3

 

If I start tcpdump in not promiscous mode I see a lot of traffic not related with me, exactly the same if I do it in promiscuous mode.

Another curious phenomenon is that my machine sees duplicated packets:

 


[root@SLIMDSAT root]# ping www.cisco.com

Any idea about what is happening and how to solve it?

 

Thanks !
