Well, I solved the problem. Here's what: 1) noticed messages on my xconsole about arp lookups failing:10.20.30.2 not on local network. Oh really? 2) added network 10.20.30 to /etc/networks 2a) route add -net 10.20.3for vx0 instead of route add 10.20.30.2 I'm not really sure which of 2) or 2a) did it, but it works now.
