https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233016 Bug ID: 233016 Summary: arp -s weird error with non-local IPs Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: arm64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: vince@macports.org arp -s reports a weird error “cannot allocate memory” when instructed to masquerade an ARP - IP entry whose IP is out of the local network window (e.g. 172.31.1.0 on a 172.31.0.0/24 network). It would be more informative for the user to have the error reported as an “out of range IP” or something of the same ilk, since “cannot allocate memory” gives the false impression something is broken within the kernel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
