In-Reply-To: <20010314135930.D74704@daemon.ninth-circle.org> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org 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.
