Yes it seems but this other is in every case the same 00:00:0c:15:e7:0d

It seems, it is changing it's ip number 2 times per minute because it is
routing ip packets inside our net.

I know it is a Cisco routing device + we are using "classless"
internet (variable length masks).

I am not expert in routing etc. just trying to run some FreeBSD nodes.

Network gurus admit there is a problem in the network, but why only
FreeBSD nodes seem to suffer from it?
