Hi all,
Has it been previously discussed whether bridge flooding should be done bef=
ore or after the NF_BR_LOCAL_OUT hook?
Today it is done AFTER but logically it seems like it should be done BEFORE=
(on "ingress"). I think this would be analogous to operation of the NF_IP=
_LOCAL_OUT hook when IP multicasting.
Regards,
John A. Van Boxtel
