Basically, I am not even sure if it is a problem to worry about. As I mentioned, I am running a FreeBSD stable box with gated 3.5.9 taking a full view, advertising a couple of /24s to my upstream. I have 2 border routers. Both are the same hardware. One is a 2.2.7 RELEASE box with an Etinc serial card. That one works quite well with no such messages as above. The other is an fxp only box running gated 3.5.9 with no other purpose in life. Since deploying it a few days ago, I have had my kern.* syslog fill with the above messages. I am not sure if it is something to worry about or not. The gated.conf file is fairly straightforward at this point and identical to the other border router's config, save for the AS and peer address differences of course. In short, a) I am not clear as to the meaning of the message b) Is it something to worry about c) if its not a bug, where should I look to find the cause of it. ---Mike ********************************************************************** Mike Tancsa, Network Admin * mike@sentex.net Sentex Communications Corp, * http://www.sentex.net/mike Cambridge, Ontario * 01.519.651.3400 Canada * To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
