If the rp_filter == 2 works for you, cool beans.  "0" means no filtering, "1" 
means strict filtering (default), and "2" means "loose" filtering.  The 4.x 
kernel interprets these differently than 3.x, such that to get absolutely no 
filtering, you have to articulate both the "all", and each NIC for which you do 
not want filtering.  If "loose" is working, then good to go on that angle.

On VM machines, my experience has shown that the noaaport instance NIC has to 
be given a bridging configuration . . . i.e., it has to be a "straight through" 
pass of the traffic for the device that is connected to the Novra.  I assume 
that was already the case with the RH7 VM, but maybe the loading of the RH8 
scrubbed that?
