If I do: # route add 1.2.3.4/32 2.3.4.5 -sendpipe 131072 add net 1.2.3.4: gateway 2.3.4.5 It seems to work okay, but the "sendpipe" option doesn't seem to have any effect: # route get 1.2.3.4 route to: 1.2.3.4 destination: 1.2.3.4 mask: 255.255.255.255 gateway: 2.3.4.5 interface: em0 flags: recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msec rttvar hopcount mtu expire 0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 0 Other options (such as -mtu) seem to work okay, but send/recvpipe doesn't. A search shows this was brought up in June of 2006 as well: http://groups.google.com/group/lucky.freebsd.stable/browse_thread/thread/6f0ce6d030137ea5/48b45e884df3779f%2348b45e884df3779f Before I file a PR... is this a bug or are we misunderstanding how it's supposed to work in 6.x now? -- Kevin
