I'm using FreeBSD 8.1 and I'm seeing the following messages spit out frequently. IPv4 address: "169.254.231.172" is not on the network arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 169.254.231.172 Background: I have two interfaces attached to the same LAN, both configured using 169.254/16 link local automatic addressing. ARP entries exist for each interface. There are two routing entries for 169.254.0.0/16, one going out each interface. I've done some debugging and it appears that this happens when a packet is received on one of the interfaces and while sending the reply the routing lookup code says that we should send it out the other interface. This causes the "not on the network" message. I'm looking for suggestions or patches to allow this configuration to work as I need to have both interfaces on this network for redundancy. Thanks for any help. -Chris Miller
