Using Netgraph, you can emulate any number of Ethernet interfaces
on one physical interface. Here's my recipe for you:
1. Load the ng_ether(4) module.
2. Create the required number of ng_eiface(4) nodes.
3. Connect "lower" and "upper" of sis0: and all ngethX:
ng_ether(4) nodes to one ng_bridge(4).
4. Make sure to "ngctl msg <if>: setautosrc 0" to all
ng_ether(4) nodes.
5. Optionally set net.link.ether.inet.log_arp_wrong_iface=0.
Here's my test (I've omitted obvious configuration steps):
# ifconfig dc0 ether
dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=48<VLAN_MTU,POLLING>
ether 00:10:a4:c0:c0:45
# ifconfig ngeth0
ngeth0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 00:00:00:01:02:03
# ngctl show bridge:
Name: bridge Type: bridge ID: 0000000b Num hooks: 4
Local hook Peer name Peer type Peer ID Peer hook
---------- --------- --------- ------- ---------
link4 ngeth0 ether 00000007 lower
link3 ngeth0 ether 00000007 upper
link2 dc0 ether 00000002 lower
link1 dc0 ether 00000002 upper
# ifconfig ngeth0 1.2.3.4
# tcpdump -lenx -i dc0 ether host 0:0:0:1:2:3
tcpdump: listening on dc0
20:29:05.571179 0:0:0:1:2:3 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 0806 42: arp who-has 1.2.3.4 tell 1.2.3.4
0001 0800 0604 0001 0000 0001 0203 0102
0304 0000 0000 0000 0102 0304
