All works well, and had for months. After a reboot of cisco and freebsd, all still works well, but we cannot ping cisco inside to fbsd outside (the back to back interfaces with x-over cable), plus when we traceroute up to internet, all we get is * * * when traversing that link, followed by normal traceoute behavior. This link carries several a gigabyte of traffic a day in both directions without pb's, but we have this problem with that link. dmesg shows tons of: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt arplookup 255.255.255.252 failed: host is not on local network arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt arplookup 255.255.255.252 failed: host is not on local network arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt and /var/log/messages shows: Jan 16 18:03:49 gw1 /kernel: arplookup 255.255.255.252 failed: host is not on local network Jan 16 18:03:49 gw1 /kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt Jan 16 18:03:51 gw1 /kernel: arplookup 255.255.255.252 failed: host is not on local network Jan 16 18:03:51 gw1 /kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt Jan 16 18:03:52 gw1 /kernel: arplookup 255.255.255.252 failed: host is not on local network Jan 16 18:03:52 gw1 /kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.252rt 255.255.255.252 is of course not an ip address but a netmask on the two of the 3 xl0 cards in that machine. ifconfig -a shows nothing strange stumped Len To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
