transparent bridge and ARP proxy confusion

2005-03-16 Thread Nerius Landys
I came across this bug (or feature) in the FreeBSD "transparent bridge" module, and am wondering whether or not anyone can shed some light on it. By "transparent bridge", I mean that my /boot/loader.conf file has the line bridge_load="YES" and that my /etc/rc.conf file has the line ifconfig_fxp

Depends on what the arps are for. On my network router (which is running 5.3), I noticed a lot of ARP messages that were not as a result of any configuration errors and was able to put a stop to it by using this control variable in sysctl: net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_wrong_iface=0 Furth
