This is actually correct. 200.236.148.68 is assigned to fxp0 fxp0 is the NIC installed within local host so if you ping 200.236.148.68, your friendly BSD box understands that it is a pointless exercise to talk to itself via the network and therefore (sensibly) has it's own little private conversation via lo0 (localhost 127.0.0.1) Clever huh :-) Craig *** ask the computer to make a mistake and it will obey you without question *** ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gustavo Vieira Goncalves Coelho Rios" <gustavo@ifour.com.br> To: <questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Wednesday, January 03, 2001 4:02 AM Subject: weird route in routing table > While monitoring my routing table i got the following: > > grios@midas$ netstat -rn > Routing tables > > Internet: > Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif > Expire > default 200.236.148.1 UGSc 17 2498 fxp0 > 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 1420 lo0 > 200.236.148 link#1 UC 0 0 fxp0 => > 200.236.148.1 0:60:2e:0:4d:2b UHLW 18 0 fxp0 > 1196 > 200.236.148.2 0:60:2e:0:48:5f UHLW 0 0 fxp0 > 1186 > 200.236.148.4 0:c0:5:4:1e:48 UHLW 0 0 fxp0 > 1142 > 200.236.148.5 0:c0:5:4:27:f1 UHLW 0 0 fxp0 > 1180 > 200.236.148.6 0:c0:df:e5:8c:13 UHLW 0 47570 fxp0 > 1177 > 200.236.148.8 0:c0:df:e6:10:16 UHLW 1 128687 fxp0 > 1177 > 200.236.148.12 0:c0:df:80:c:9c UHLW 0 251 fxp0 > 1186 > 200.236.148.14 0:0:21:e3:ee:ce UHLW 0 0 fxp0 > 1200 > 200.236.148.68 0:90:27:a6:c2:68 UHLW 3 117392 lo0 > 200.236.148.108 link#1 UHLW 1 1714 fxp0 => > 200.236.148.180 link#1 UHLW 1 1837 fxp0 => > 200.236.148.190 link#1 UHLW 2 1334 fxp0 => > grios@midas$ > > I cannot figure out why destination 200.236.148.68 is pointing to Netif > lo0, should it be fxp0 ? > > My ifconfig -a is: > > grios@midas$ ifconfig -a > fxp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > inet 200.236.148.68 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 200.236.148.255 > inet 200.236.148.69 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 200.236.148.255 > inet 200.236.148.70 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 200.236.148.255 > ether 00:90:27:a6:c2:68 > media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active > supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX > 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP > lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 > inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 > > > As you can see the ip address 200.236.148.68 is being used by fxp0, not > lo0!
