The following reply was made to PR kern/72468; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Brian Candler <B.Candler@pobox.com> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, knatte@disney.mine.nu Cc: Subject: Re: kern/72468: OS does not know how to handle broadcast... Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2005 15:11:57 +0100 You can replicate this easily with 'ping 255.255.255.255' and 'tcpdump -i fxp0 -n -e'. tcpdump shows packets being encapsulated to the default router's MAC address rather than ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff I see this with both fxp0 and vr0, so I don't think it's driver-specific. This appears to be a regression from FreeBSD 4.x. See also http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2005-October/008626.html
