Public bug reported:

1)Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS (Lucid Lynx)
2)sendip 2.53
3)following options are not supported in ubuntu as in gentoo linux

Additional options:
  -n <num>   send <num> number of packets. Default: 1
  -w <num>   wait <num> between sending each packet. Default: no wait
  -l <num>   set packet len to <num>. Default: 10

  Dot1Q options:
  -qp <num>  User Priority       0
  -qc <0/1>  CFI                 0
  -qi <num>  Vlan ID             0

  MAC options: If used, ALL have to be configured!
  -ms <hex>  source MAC. Default: MAC of best interface to Destination IP
             Note: if -ms is configured, -md & -mi MUST also be configured
  -md <hex>  destination MAC address. Default: MAC of next-hop interface
             Note: if -md is configured, -ms & -mi MUST also be configured
  -mi <name> interface to send the packet. Default: best interface to 
Destination IP
             Note: if -mi is configured, -ms & -md MUST also be configured
             Example: sendip 10.1.1.1 -mi eth1 -ms 00d0b7c3bfe1 -md 003088010203


So many scripts will fail if we will comment "source mac ,destination mac 
,length , number of 
packet" as mentioned in EV 147193. sendip is not even supporting interface to 
send .
