It means the IP address moved from one ethernet interface to another. The most likely cause is a DHCP server assinged the IP to a new machine. It is also possible that it is something like HP's MC/ServiceGuard reassigned an IP from a failed interface to a working one. It is also possible that someone is doing something they shouldn't. I would bet on DHCP these days, though. David Scheidt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
