[Planetlab-users] Summary of virtual-network related issues

[Jawwad Shamsi]

Hello,
I have a UDP based application which uses libpcap to capture packet
information. The application was working fine in the previous version of the
PlanetLab. However, in the newer version of PL, the libpcap application can
only capture the outgoing packets, while the incoming packets remain
unnoticed.

Seems like it is related to the virtual network issue mentioned here.
