Hi,
Currently in ipv4_input.c we have a warning that a packet was not for us
and was dropped. This pollutes the output of the console for no real
value when connected to a real network.
I suggest we turn this warning into an info to keep things clean.
The file contains real warnings that are much more important and
relevant that this line.
Could be configurable (with a potential CONFIG_NET_IP_NOTFORUS_WARN) or
fixed, here is the relevant code.
I can send a PR but I would like your general feeling on this issue
first, thank you!
