These are added in /etc/rc.conf. ifconfig_xl0_alias0="inet 63.65.211.21 netmask 255.255.255.255" ifconfig_xl0_alias1="inet 63.65.211.22 netmask 255.255.255.255" You asked about terminations. There are none. This is UTP with RJ45 connectors. Both hosts have 6 foot cables connecting them to a hub. The hub connects via 10base2 coax (BNC terminated at both ends) to a transceiver on the router. There is no indication of collisions on the indicator light on the front of the router. --Keith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
