Hi,
In my server, I have three ethernet cards: xl0, xl1 and vx0. xl0 and xl1
are bridged and one of them is connected to my ethernet switch, the other
to my wireless acess point. xl0 has an IP address of 192.168.1.1.
vx0 is connected to my ADSL modem. My ADSL modem (D-Link ADSL 300G+)
insists on using an IP address of 192.168.1.0, but via DHCP it hands vx0
one of the IP addresses in the /29 that I have from my ADSL provider.
In dmesg I often see: arplookup 192.168.0.1 failed: host is not on local
network
Now obviously 192.168.0.1 isn't on the same network as xl0's 192.168.1.1
since xl0 has a netmask of 0xfffff00.
But what is causing this message? Something I read suggested dhcpd, which
I have handing out IP addresses on 192.168.1.0/24, but I don't see why.
I am aware that this has been discussed before, but I can't see anything
misconfigured, and while this is only a minor annoyance I would quite like
to get it fixed.
ifconfig looks like this:
xl0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=3<rxcsum,txcsum>
inet6 fe80::201:2ff:fe9b:c86%xl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 00:01:02:9b:0c:86
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)

vx0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

xl1: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=3<rxcsum,txcsum>

ether 00:01:02:b8:3c:56

status: no carrier
Thanks for any help
