man arp man route ask on -questions and because I'm feeling helpful: arp -s 10.10.10.1 00:00:ca:13:4b:54 arp -s 10.10.10.2 00:00:ca:13:4b:54 route add -net 10.10.10.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 -interface fxp0 route add default 10.10.10.1 -interface fxp0 FreeBSD's arp doesn't allow you to specify an interface. Adding the same host to the arp table twice is pointless and would probably produce an error, so I changed the addresses. Replace "fxp0" with the name of the interface in question. With a netmask of 255.255.255.0, 10.10.10.0 is a network address and can't (or at least shouldn't) be used as a router or client address (changed in the example above). I'm forced to wonder why you would want to run this sequence of commands and if there isn't a better way to achieve the desired result. Please reply off-list if you feel so inclined.
