No,it is a bug in ipconfig, as pump works without a problem.

I just fixed the bug, the problem is that the packet_peek looks on all
packets instead of packets on the specific interface and the return
value (ret) was never reset. I'll send two different patches for fixing
the problem, an easy one just reseting the ret variable and another
little bit more complex one adjusting the packet_peek and
packet_discard.

Thanks for looking into my issue,
Ulrich
