original message with (syctl variables, ipfw output and dmesg) http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?20040826204237.44644.qmail Test: move cable from ip'd port to non-ip'd port and ping known address. ip'd port = em0 non ip'd port = em1 cvsupped sources today and rebuilt world and kernel installed kernel rebooted and installed world and mergemastered. ng_bridge now works...but i need ipfw to filter per interface and, by the man page, ng_bridge and ipfw don't play together like that yet. So, I need to use bridge(4) and that still doesn't work. What I have found is I can ping the ip'd port(em0) when the cable is plugged into the non-ip'd port(em1) but cannot ping out em1 to other machines. tcpdump -i em1 shows broadcast packets from other machines but no ping packets during the above ping "out" attempt. I attempted to force 100baseTX full-duplex instead of auto-negotiate but it didn't work. (I thought maybe something is quirky with the em driver and the switch.) Any help or tips is greatly appreciated. _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo! Enter now. http://promotions.yahoo.com/goldrush
