Bug ID: 241792
Summary: dhclient default route not working when given a /32
netmask
Product: Base System
Version: 12.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
Reporter: sig...@gmail.com
There's a certain VM where autoconfiguration via DHCP works with Linux but not
FreeBSD. I have no information on how this VM is setup apart that it's hosted
with KVM/QEMU.
The DHCP server sends a lease with a /32 netmask. This makes adding the
default route fail since it is not reachable via any interface. Linux's
dhclient-script seem to usually have a special case for that and explicitly
adds an interface route to the router's address.
FreeBSD's dhclient-script has a special case for when the router address is the
same as the leased address, but not when it's a different address that doesn't
fall in the interface's subnet.
With this change, DHCP just works on this VM:
