>Organization:
ValueHost
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD v20.valuehost.ru 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #0: Tue Jan 28 19:24:52 MSK 2003 root@v20.valuehost.ru:/usr/src/sys/compile/V20 i386

	Different i386 hosts. Sample configuration: SMP kernel, 2 * P-IV, 1GB mem,
	SCSI disks, 2 em0 interfaces. Latest cvsupped stable. 

>Description:

	/sbin/ifconfig em0 alias [ip] netmask 255.255.255.255 
	hangs network for 30-35 seconds.

	For example 
su-2.05b# /sbin/ifconfig -a
em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=3<rxcsum,txcsum>
        inet 62.118.251.68 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 62.118.251.255
        ether 00:07:e9:04:b0:08
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
em1: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=3<rxcsum,txcsum>
        ether 00:07:e9:04:b0:09
        media: Ethernet autoselect
        status: no carrier
sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552
faith0: flags=8002<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

Now launch ping from any host and type 
/sbin/ifconfig em0 alias 62.118.251.84 netmask 255.255.255.255
 
and host stopped to answer icmp echo-requests
 
kant@ahost:/usr/home/kant#ping 62.118.251.68

tcpdump sessions saved on the target host (62.118.251.68)
also doesn't see any network activity this time.
