Hi All, I like to know why when I turn on ROUTED on my machines they don't discover the attached subnets to the link. The scenario is below: I' have several bsd computers each with one network card. All the computers sit on a shared Ethernet. I like to perform some routing simulations comparing ospf and rip. So I have setup the computers so that each NIC has several IP address aliases assigned. When I turn on ROUTED I see a few hello packets exchanged and very so often I see an IGMP multicast for the router discovery protocol. However, the routing tables remain as they were before I turnon ROUTED. So basically the aliased NIC IP addresses are not being advertised. Can you tell me how I can make routing work through these aliased addresses? Also I have addressed my computers in the 10.x.x.x range which is the private IP address range and not internet routable. Does ROUTED care about the range of addresses in use or all IP addresses are using in the routing table as valid routable addresses. Just wanted to make sure this wasn't my problem. Thanks in advance for taking the time to suggest solution, ~Koroush Saraf To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
