This is not my case, no kernel messages, I see the packets. (im mirrowing the traffic to another host so that i can 'sniff' it). the host has indeed two nics, but only one is connected. The problem - if indeed it is - only appears on this host, and i have several identical ones, that don't show this. danny > > > > At 10:44 AM 3/16/2005 +0200, Danny Braniss wrote: > | While debuging something else, im noticing my host sending out > | 'Gratuitous ARP' serveral times per second all the time. > | Q: is this normal? > | > | btw, the host is running 5.3 and the ethernet hardware is > | <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection, Version - 1.7.35> > | thanks, > | danny > | > | > | _______________________________________________ > | freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list > | http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net > | To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > | > | _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
