Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It seems that an interface configured with an address, which is then deleted, and then set to a different address on the same network, the machine continues to use the original address although all evidence of it is gone. examples. ifconfig fxp0 207.252.1.31 netmask 255.255.255.0 ping something,and the .31 address is sent out. ifconfig fxp0 delete ifconfig ftp0 207.252.1.60 netmask 255.255.255.0 ping something, and the .31 address is still sent! something is cached somewhere, because ifconfig and route show the correct entries.
