Hi,

	The current FreeBSD (or all BSD IP stacks) implements
	Weak End System model as described in RFC 1122.

	And as Jonathan pointed out, there is a switch similar
	to but not completely does the Strong ES model
	called net.inet.ip.check_interface, but it's in either
	-stable or -current. Probably will be included in
	FreeBSD 4.3.

	regards,

	yushun.
