The KNI operation config_network_if was starting the physical interfaces before they were ready to do so, which would break the initialization of the interfaces. A typical symptom of this problem is the following log entry: Main/0: net: cannot set the MTU on the front iface (error 16) The KNI operations config_promiscusity and config_allmulticast are ignored instead of disabled to avoid upsetting applications since applications that can call these operations run as root or have the capabilities to do so.
