Yes- this may have been true for a long time - but quite a number of Unix variants don't require it, so I forgot :-).. For example, neither OpenBSD nor NetBSD seem to require it. It turns out that this is only stumbled on rarely- but if it's all the same to you, a comment would help a lot. -mat

All the interfaces specified will stop working as normal interfaces, as their lower halves will be disconnected from their upper halves.. in other words the lower 'physical' part is run without any connection to the normal networking layer.. The bridging code (netgraph bridging) takes over this f

Not only that but the ifnet structure must be the first part of the arpcom struct so that arpcm, ifnet and softc often need to be the same.. I've been gradually trying to remove this requirement over the last 10 years but it's still there.. :-/ Comments can't hurt though.. On Mon, 1 Oct 2001, M

This bit me in the butt yet again about FreeBSD and some assumptions about how a NIC's softc is laid out- I don't really it stated elsewhere, so a couple source file comments seem in order.. Frankly, this kind of assumption is dangerous and unnecessary with methods, but at the very least it ought

The bridging code connects to the lower (i.e. WIRE) part of each interface mentionned an dintercepts all packets coming in. If you want any of these packets to also be passed to the local machine you should select one of the local interfaces (any will do) and add it in the LOCAL_INTERFACE entry

Howdy! I just went to setup some ifpw on server and it broke dns lookups, which are on 192.168.60.5. So based on the ipfw logs I was prompted to do a netstat -rn and this is what it shows 192.168.60.5 is on lo0??. 0:e0:81:1:bd:70 is the MAC for fxp1, but what is it doing showing
