Doc Text: |
In certain network setups (specifically, using VLAN on certain NICs where packets are sent through the VLAN GRO rx path), sending packets from an active ethernet port to another inactive ethernet port could affect the network's bridge and cause the bridge to acquire a wrong bridge port. This resulted in all packets not being passed along in the network. With this update, the underlying source code has been modified to address this issue, and network traffic works as expected.
