IPFC Considerations

Note the following considerations for IPFC:

  • Promiscuous mode is not supported. The snoop utility cannot be used.

  • IP multicast is not supported (RFC 2625 does not define IP multicast support).

  • IPFC network interfaces cannot be used to forward IP datagrams. Oracle Solaris cannot function as an IP router with an IPFC interface.

  • IPFC interfaces cannot be administered using the dladm command.

  • IPFC interfaces do not use vanity names.
