You may want to turn on the tcpdump(1) option `--no-promiscuous-mode`. By
default tcpdump(1) will put the interface into promiscuous mode, i.e., the
interface will see all traffic.

You can also check if the interface is put into promiscuous mode by
ifconfig(8).
```
$ ifconfig cxl0 | grep PROMISC
cxl0: flags=8902<BROADCAST,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
```

You're welcomed to report back if the issue persists.
