Hi all,

Because of administrative reasons I need to ampliate my internal IP range from /24 to /16. This change affects my OpenBSD firewalls. However I've the FWs in bridge mode, so I don't need to reconfigure the bridged NICs. The only one NIC that needs the change is the 'administrative NIC'. At present it looks like:

$ ifconfig em2
em2: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:30:48:8c:a1:12
        groups: egress
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex)
        status: active
        inet 192.168.1.253 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
        inet6 fe80::230:48ff:fe8c:a112%em2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3

?Will be enough to change the netmask with ifconfig(8) and modify the /etc/hostname.em2 for future reebots/uses of /etc/network script?
