Can you elaborate a bit more on your setup please? I don't have a Cisco
available at the moment, but I did the following setup and traceroute
and other routing does work:
Ethernet
------------------------------
| |
Machine A Machine B Machine C
(FreeBSD-current) (FreeBSD-2.2.1) (FreeBSD-current)
RISCom N2/ISA RISCom NS/PCI
| |
-----------------------------------
Machine B is:
50MHz 486DX
8MB RAM
SMC 16bit ethernet
RISCom NS/ISA
I did a clean 2.2.1 install from ftp.za.freebsd.org choosing the "kernel
developer" option to get the kernel source, recompiled a kernel with:
device sr0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 12 iomem 0xd0000 vector srintr
pseudo-device sppp
added and all other device unneeded device drivers took out. I rebooted
with the new kernel and did the following (the ethernet side was using
the sysconfig setup that was done by the installation):
ifconfig sr0 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 link2
sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
I could then ping, traceroute and telnet from machine A to machine C.
