+I40e VF may not receive packets in the promiscuous mode
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+**Description**:
+ Promiscuous mode is not supported by the DPDK i40e VF driver when using the
+ i40e Linux kernel driver as host driver.
+
+**Implication**:
+ The i40e VF does not receive packets when the destination MAC address is unknown.
+
+**Resolution/Workaround**:
+ Use a explicit destination MAC address that matches the VF.
+
+**Affected Environment/Platform**:
+ All.
+
+**Driver/Module**:
+ Poll Mode Driver (PMD).
