RE: BRIDGE breaks ARP? (more info)

[Patrick Bihan-Faou]

Hi again,


Maybe I am misunderstanding things, but since the arp-request we recieve are
for our IP address, do we need to forward them to the other segments ?


Here is my setup:

[PC : 192.168.1.254]--------[rl0]---[FreeBSD : 192.168.1.1]---[fxp0]----[]


On the freebsd machine I have 2 tcpdumps running looking for arps on each
interface.

Now if I do a "ping 192.168.1.254", I get a
"arp who-as 192.168.1.1 tell 192.168.1.254" line on both tcpdumps. The
arp-reply goes out only on rl0 (this seem correct).


Patrick.
