I have a solaris VM running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS KVM.

I'm using bridged networking. VM is unable to get an IP address, on sending DHCP request I can see requests going through bridge br0 and replies coming on br0, but it is not reaching the VM.

I have also flushed (iptables -F) all the rules, still packets not reaching VM!
