Two interfaces are bridged and have no ip address assigned to either of them. The third interface is set up for administration and is not configured in the bridge group. It is locked up tight. The issue is, I am constantly receiving the following error message: /kernel: arp: *MACADDRESS of one of the bridged ifaces* is using my IP address *IPADDRESS of the administrative interface* The bridge is passing traffic, filtering, logging without issue. But, I do not like the fact that it's unhappy. Any suggestions? FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE-p11 #5 Ipfw Bridging compiled into kernel Rc.conf configured only one iface (administrative with ip address) Thank you, Don CPU-NET.Com, Inc Customer Service http://www.cpu-net.com http://www.cpu-hosting.com
