Hi, everyone.

I have a small tool that uses pcap_inject to send ethernet frames on
specific host interfaces. When injecting on a 802.1q virtual interface
on Solaris the frame is ultimately transmitted without the 802.1q header
that should have been add by the host OS. This is Solaris 10 on SPARC
with libpcap 1.1.1, and the same scenario works perfectly on Linux.

Is this something that should work on Solaris too?


Can you provide more information?
Are you using a virtual interface such as vnic0?
Or does it have another name?
Which Solaris 10 update?
