Hi everybody, I was running a freebsd machine bridging packets on 2 interfaces and acting as my internet router without any problem. Last week I had to change my IP allocation and, due ipfw2 improvements on layer2, I decided not to route packets through this machine anymore, but have a 3 nics bridge, then the annoying "/kernel: -- loop (x) xxarpxx to nicx from nicy (active)" is here :) . The moving arps are from the internet router - attached directly to ep0 - and a ras attached to xl0 . Freebsd keeps telling me the message with this 2 arps moving between its 3 nics. I understanding the arp and bridge basics very well and I think this problem has something to do with this 2 equipaments "scanning" my network with "arp who-has" ( detected with tcpdump ). I even "locked" all my 128 ips arps with arp -s and arp -s pub options but nothing changed. I tryied even to stop messages with net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_wrong_iface=0 , again no success. No google, no man pages, nothing I could do... Running 4.8-stable cvsuped and made world kernel at 15 this month, ipfw2, 3 nics with bridge on them. Did anyone have anything like this or do know any tip? -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Paiva, Gilson de Domingos Martins mailto:npd@el.com.br Brazil http://www.el.com.br/ E&L Producoes de Software http://www.FreeBSD.org/ FreeBSD: The Power to Serve =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Aviso Legal: Esta mensagem pode nao expressar oficialmente as ideias ou vontades da empresa E&L Producoes de Software, sendo responsavel por esta exclusivamente seu autor.
