Hi J.C.,
Thank you for your answer.
I have written that I want to use the computer as a router in a future. I'm
testing it in my lab as a simple non-router computer now. The first
interface has ip 192.168.0.48 and the second 192.168.0.49. From the console
of the computer I'm not able to ping the second interface (host is down).
(No error in messages, VIA EPIA PD-10000, OpenBSD 3.9) Ifconfig follows:
/var/log$ ifconfig -A
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33224

Hi Karel,
The answer is that you do not understand routing, so building a "router"
will require you to learn what you are doing.
Think about your configuration...
-You have two interfaces on the same subnet.
-You have only one default route for that subnet.
-Your default route to that subnet is tied to a single interface.
Do you see the conflict?

Make sure you download and read the PDF file linked as "Understanding IP
Addressing" on the above page.
Kind Regards,
JCR
