Hello,
After this commit 'device ether' is mandatory if ever there is no any ethernet or token-ring devices. | luigi 2002/02/18 14:50:13 PST | | Modified files: | sys/net if.c | Log: | When the local link address is changed, send out gratuitous ARPs | to notify other nodes about the address change. Otherwise, they | might try and keep using the old address until their arp table | entry times out and the address is refreshed. | | Maybe this ought to be done for INET6 addresses as well but i have | no idea how to do it. It should be pretty straightforward though. | | MFC-after: 10 days | | Revision Changes Path | 1.128 +11 -0 src/sys/net/if.c -- Maxim Konovalov, MAcomnet, Internet-Intranet Dept., system engineer phone: +7 (095) 796-9079, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
