On a system running the runZero Explorer, you may see console messages or log messages like this:
device enp0s3 entered promiscuous mode device enp0s3 left promiscuous mode
These are not a cause for concern. When the runZero Explorer has traffic sampling enabled, it opens the network interface in a mode where it can listen to any passing traffic on the local subnet. This is known as "promiscuous mode". Once traffic sampling is paused or turned off, the interface is returned to regular mode.
