My issue; have 2 NICs set with 'External' IPs on different wires(diff hubs), and only one responds to external pings (xl0). xl0 = 161.184.39.164 (works) xl1 = 24.68.217.232 (doesn't respond) I setup DHCP for both interfaces and ifconfig shows that they both get their ips. xl0 listens properly, while xl1 won't respond to pings and what not. I figure it's because xl1 receives the ping and xl0 replies because of the routes setup. However I'm not very good at routes, so I need help :) Can someone please advise how to fix this solution?
