Where do these loop (n) messages come from and what do they mean? rl0 and rl1 are bridged. 00:90:47:00:b3:62 and 00:90:47:00:98:ac are the mac addresses of rl2 and rl3 respectively. These interfaces have their own IP addresses. rl1 and rl2 are plugged into the same physical network. rl0 goes to my upstream router. rl3 is on a different network.
