ethernet promiscuous mode

When we set Etherenet on PROMISCUOUS mode , is it normal that the card will recive the Packet they send . On other way if i send a packet throu an ethernet card which set to PROMISCUOUS mode way i recive the same Packet ? any way to avoide that...

Thanks

aix ethernet set promiscuous mode

I think, Ethernet hardware chip does not (at least should not ) receive its own transmitted frames in PROMISCUOUS mode.

But some software (WinPcap library, for example) can do that. Maybe packet filter (or something) could be set to skip transmitted frames.
