Thanks to Chris Hallinan and Joe Green for their replies. We chose
'pump' from MontaVista and it works well. (Had to recompile for our
system)
A few things to remember when using pump are:
1. Make sure the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_PACKET defined
2. If you "pump -k" to kill the interface, and want to manually
start it again with hard coded IP's, make sure the flags are
set correctly to bring the interface back up:
struct ifreq ifr;
ifr.ifr_flags |= (IFF_UP | IFF_RUNNING);
ioctl(sd, SIOCSIFFLAGS, &ifr);
This may save some time
Regards
Coenraad
