I have a snort box on 4.4-stable listening on rl0 (dlink 530tx+) at home mimicking a production server running snort in a lights-out, colo facility. I need to switch interfaces on Snort, so this is what I did: ifconfig rl1 inet x.x.x.x changed rc.conf to include: ifconfig_rl1="inet 1.1.1.1" upon reboot (home box, not production) Snort complains that device rl1 is not configured and dies; Snort is right. ifconfig -a tells me rl1 is there but without an IP. I know how to setup an interface using /stand/sysinstall but that's not an option here. Is there a man page I missed? Please toss me one if you know. The second problem seems normal: when the second interface comes up, I get "arp: 10.x.x.x is on fxp0 but got reply from 00:02:fd:a3:d8:00 on ti0" on the production server. Everything is working beautifully (so long as no one reboots) but my dmesg has about 100 of these since yesterday. How do I get rid of them? ===== ----------------------------------------------------------- Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.
