Re: VMWare ESXi 5.1 promiscuous mode.

Strange:

~ # esxcli network vswitch standard policy security get -v vSwitch0

   Allow Promiscuous: false

   Allow MAC Address Change: true

   Allow Forged Transmits: true

~ # esxcli network vswitch standard portgroup policy security get -p "VM Network"

   Allow Promiscuous: false

   Allow MAC Address Change: true

   Allow Forged Transmits: true

   Override Vswitch Allow Promiscuous: true

   Override Vswitch Allow MAC Address Change: false

   Override Vswitch Allow Forged Transmits: false

I can't understand the directive "Override Vswitch Allow Promiscuous: true", both vswitch and portgroup doesn't allow Promiscuous mode. This is the Portgroup security configuration:

Thank you again
