I have 5.0 running as a bridge/ipfw firewall configuration, which is seemingly working very well in an ISP environment. However, there is something that I don't know if it is an error, or normal. On the console, I get the following message many times per second: ether_input: drop bdg packet I am suspecting that this is just a logging issue within part of the bridge/ipfw code, but I would like some feeback if possible to what exactly this is for. I have looked through bridge.c, ipfw.c, bpf.c, bpf_filter.c and many others for the answer. There is much reference to DROP in bridge.c, but nothing that looks like the console message. I would really like to find out why this is happening, and how to make some changes, so I would appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of the code for this as opposed to or in addition to the answer. Tks greatly! Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
