Hello ! We have an 2.2.7-RELEASE box and this beast gets flooded by our Cisco router with messages like: 14:37:00.964375 gw.matti.ee > vanaema.matti.ee: icmp: redirect jaan.egg.ee to host Torujuhe.matti.ee My understanding is that Cisco sends usual redirect message to vanaema.matti.ee but this machine doesn't accept these messages and sends packets destined to Torujuhe.matti.ee to router no matter what the Cisco was told. Why? Sysctl -a | grep net.inet.ip shows: net.inet.ip.portrange.lowfirst: 1023 net.inet.ip.portrange.lowlast: 600 net.inet.ip.portrange.first: 1024 net.inet.ip.portrange.last: 5000 net.inet.ip.portrange.hifirst: 40000 net.inet.ip.portrange.hilast: 44999 net.inet.ip.forwarding: 0 net.inet.ip.redirect: 1 net.inet.ip.ttl: 64 net.inet.ip.rtexpire: 315 net.inet.ip.rtminexpire: 10 net.inet.ip.rtmaxcache: 128 net.inet.ip.sourceroute: 0 net.inet.ip.intr_queue_maxlen: 50 net.inet.ip.intr_queue_drops: 0 net.inet.ip.accept_sourceroute: 0 net.inet.ip.subnets_are_local: 1 net.inet.ip.fw.debug: 1 net.inet.ip.fw.verbose: 0 net.inet.ip.fw.verbose_limit: 0 Are there something wrong or I'm mistaken in some other way ? This box doesn't run any routing daemon and has some static routes only.
