Do I remember hearing some caveats about the use of ifconfig's metric under FreeBSD? Another question: Is there a reason that the following sequence: ifconfig ep0 inet 192.168.13.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 down ifconfig ed0 inet 192.168.13.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 configures ep0 to be the selected interface? More to the point, would it be useful if I made the changes to cause interfaces configured as down to not go into the routing table at configuration time?
