Although the lagg(4) change is definetely a needed fix, the way of network roaming via stacking WiFi and Ethernet into lagg(4) always looked like a huge crutch to me. Isn't the problem solvable via a some kind of smarter dhclient? How other UNIX-like OS-es solve this? -- Totus tuus, Glebius. _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
