Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade my firewall/router to 5.x but I'm getting caught by
the fact that I cannot find a 'sl0' interface.
I've tried the both with if_sl compiled into the kernel as well as a module.
In neither case does ifconfig show a sl0 device.
In the module-env kldstat does show if_sl.ko loaded, and unloading is
refused (as is clear from the code)
Sep 25 02:32:32 router kernel: if_sl module unload - not possible for
this module
When it is compiled into the kernel, if_sl.ko does not want to register,
since it is already there.
Sep 25 01:56:43 router kernel: module_register: module if_sl already
exists!
Sep 25 01:56:43 router kernel: Module if_sl failed to register: 17
running ifconfig sl0 loads the module but still generates:
router# ifconfig sl0
ifconfig: interface sl0 does not exist
The other interfaces are correctly reported.
kernel config is attached, but what am I missing or how do I debug this??
Thanx,
