If I ifconfig an interface down like: "ifconfig ne0 down", the interface route still exists in the routing table on my FreeBSD box. (Confirmed by 'netstat' command) Shouldn't the interface route be deleted and added again only when it comes up? If I were to run a routing protocol, would it announce this interface route even though the interface itself was down? Thanks CS __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
