I recently tried (for the first time) to get gif running under FreeBSD
4.3-BETA (cvsup-ed yesterday). I noticed the following:
gifconfig gif0 inet 10.1.1.1 10.1.2.1
ifconfig gif0 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00
and then I 'ping 192.168.1.1' it will try to route the packet instead of
reply directly. I need to 'route add 192.168.1.1 127.0.0.1' to have it
reply to the packet directly. I don't need to do this for other types
of interfaces... did I mess something up, is this how it is supposed to
be (doesn't seem to be documented as such).
