Same MAC address in 2 different VLANs
Hello, Could any one comment about the use of the same MAC address in 2 separate VLANs? All my machines are connected to 2 VLANs (one public and one private) with no routing in between the VLANs. I used to run a FLEX license manager to a physical machine. When I virtualized that service, I had to use the MAC address of that physical machine for the virtual machine (FLEX is linked to the MAc address and I coul dnot issue new license as licensed the pproduct is not supported anymore). The virtual NIC that has the old MAC address is connected to the public VLAN. Now I want to reuse the physical machine as a VMware server. Dell nor VMware offer a solution to change the MAC address (like ifconfig em0 link xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx would do). So I plan to connect the NIC with the incriminated MAC to the private VLAN. Most (if not all) my servers are FreeBSD. Most will access the virtual machine running FLEX and may access the VMware server also. The servers are not VLAN aware. Will this be an issue?

Re: Same MAC address in 2 different VLANs
I think you maybe ok. Ive just looked at my esx config and the esx management interfaces use their own generated macs, not the physical interfaces ones. All the vms obviously use generated macs as well. However I only looked over it at a superficial level. Have you considered using a tap or spare phyical interface on your flex box and not linking it to the network?

Hello, Could any one comment about the use of the same MAC address in 2 separate VLANs? [...] Will this be an issue? You might run into problems if the two (virtual) systems are attached to a different port on your switch. Some switches don't take the vlan into account when learning on which port a mac address exists. These switches will see the mac address jumping between ports all the time.

Sorry I am asking so many thinks. I am looking for a another help. What is static route for a IPV6 router? A static route is something I use for our IPv6 VPN clients in our net. All packets destined to the VPN clients are routed to the inside interface of the VPN router, the VPN router takes care of everything else, including wrapping the packets in the encryption layer and sending the resulting datagrams to the real clients somewhere out there in the world, back through the main router. How do i need to configure static route on FreeBSD router indicating another router's link local address as next HOP? Now I have a another router which is connected in same network with FreeBSD router. If clients on the far end of each of the two routers needs to communicate with one another, then the appropriate default gateway settings on each host and router should suffice. If three or more routers are connected somehow, then they each need to know about the prefixes on the other routers, and where to send the packets, i.e. the next hop, and let the next hop decide each packet's fate as the packets traverse each router link. This is where routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, etc, come into play. I haven't looked into route6d(8), RIP6 routing protocol, but I'm sure it can be tamed to act as you please. Maybe you should look into Quagga and/or GNU Zebra. My network is simple enough, and I only need directly connected and static routes to make things happen.

I replaced the kernel with the one on the 8.4 memstick and it booted just fine. I then built and installed a kernel without using the j flag to test Eduardo's theory. It booted without problem.

I'm not actually certain if the system cache still sits above zfs cache or not, I think I read it bypasses the traditional drive cache. For zfs cache you can set the max usage by adjusting vfs.zfs.arc_max that is a system wide setting and isn't going to increase if you have two zpools. Tip: set the arc_max value - by default zfs will use all physical ram for cache, set it to be sure you have enough ram left for any services you want running. Have you considered using one or both SSD drives with zfs? They can be added as cache or log devices to help performance. See man zpool under Intent Log and Cache Devices. This is a very interesting point. In terms if SSDs for cache, I was planning on using a pair of Samsung Pro 512GB SSDs for this purpose (which I haven't bought yet). But I tire of buying stuff, so I have a pair of 40GB Intel SSDs for use as sys disks and several Intel 160GB SSDs lying around that I can combine with the existing 256GB SSDs for a cache. Then use my 36x3TB for the beasty NAS. Agreed that 256G mirrored SSDs are kind of wasted as system drives. The 40G mirror sounds ideal. Update; I went with ZFS as I didn't want to confuse the toolset needed to support this server. Although gmirror is not hard to figure out, I wanted consistency in systems. So I've a booted 9.1 rel using a mirrored ZFS system disk. The drives do support TRIM but am unsure how this plays with ZFS.
