[flow-tools] Re: Flow-tools error on flow-receive function

[Mark Fullmer]

PDU = Protocol Data Unit.  I don't see it coded as 'PUD'.

Before 0.55 flow-receive and flow-capture would lock on
to the first source IP address.  So you must be sending
from multiple sources.  0.55 it will accept multiple
sources.

Regardless, if you configure 10.10.1.1 as the loopback
address on the router and expore datagrams using that
IP address then you would need a different IP on the host.
