Now that the problem with the machine with two physical cards is solved, by= downing one card and using an alias and leaving the extra card in for a= quick fix should the active one fail, I have another problem. This may= have been in the back of my addled thinking when I decided to put two= NIC's into the system in the first place. fxp0 and the fxp0_alias are both running. I ipfw (in a client= configuration) using the IP's for both of these (or just fxp0 for that= matter) and the regular netmask (255.255.255.192). fxp0's IP works just= like I would expect, but the IP address assigned to fxp0_alias is= unreachable and can't get out to the network. Does anyone have any= suggestions or tricks on how I can get the ipfw rules to work on both= interfaces?? The ifconfig's are set up so that fxp0 is IP a.b.c.d netmask= 255.255.255.192 and fxp0_alias is a.b.c.e netmask 255.255.255.255. Thanks, in advance, for any information you can provide.
