I've posted the same question to netbsd-users recently. Start "tcpdump -i your_external_if -n arp" and you will see crazy ARP queries like this: 17:31:45.776665 arp who-has 192.168.7.81 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:45.779798 arp who-has 192.168.7.62 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:45.780804 arp who-has 159.148.92.163 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:46.855691 arp who-has 192.168.7.104 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:46.858823 arp who-has 192.168.7.60 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:46.862458 arp who-has 159.148.92.170 tell 62.85.88.1 17:31:47.914021 arp who-has 192.168.7.227 tell 62.85.88.1 At least two ISPs (at home and at work) use packets like this for something security-related. This drives both FreeBSD and NetBSD crazy. I believe there should be sysctl for nearly meaningless network warnings like this. -- ...python is just now at 2.4? perl is 3.4 better! _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
