Hello Peter, all,
I've just tested auto-join since 13 of july.
First of all. THANKS !!! It works great.
This email is just because I've observed 2 strange situations.
I don't know if this is linked to auto-join or if this caused by errors on
my setup.
1)
egress group is not following the connected interface.
To reproduce it, just establish a connection via a cable. ifconfig will
show you that egress group is on that connection.
Pull-off the ehternet cable and run "doas sh /etc/netstart".
The system will switch perfectly to the wifi connection described in the
hostname.if file.
But, if I do a ifconfig, I still see the egress group on the cable
interface.
This was not my expectation. I thought that the egress group will switch
too to the new running interface.
2)
Time to times, the connection is correctly established on the correct
interface (for example from cable to wifi), but arp shows that the arp
table for few machines remains on the wrong interface.
I have to run "doas arp -ad" several times to remove this bad entry in the
arp table.
Is there a better way to avoid such situation ?
Thanks for your feedbacks.
