Hi Phil,

Thanks for the reply, I have gotten back to my clients with the time-line.
Since my clients are insisting that we provide loop back support in our
product, could you please suggest if there is any alternative approach to
support Loop back in current release of Solaris 10 (with out ipnet and pf
hooks).
Regards,
Laxmi

A very rough estimate would be towards the end of the year but there's
no guarantees. The early access lo driver is of DLPI type DL_ETHER so
should just work with existing DLPI code.

It's on the schedule but hasn't been started yet.

Phil
