Hello All,

Wanted to add this for completeness.
I do not understand why so much difference between ltspbr0 & eth0, the
bridged interfaces.
Seems these two should be theoritically identical?
I guess no symmetrical going on here. Never noticed this before,I guess?
rx & tx between the two seems way out of whack?

ifconfig,,,

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:59:11  
          inet6 addr: 0000::000:4cff:fe20:5911/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING PROMISC MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

ltspbr0   Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:59:11  
          inet addr:172.31.100.254  Bcast:172.31.100.255

          TX packets:47671964 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

          RX bytes:2480244830 (2.3 GiB)  TX bytes:546859657 (521.5 MiB)

Someone smarter than me,I am sure knows why this is..

Thanks,
Barry
