I'm not sure if this is by design or an actual bug. We have a system witb an 8280 with two active ethernets (fcc2 and fcc3) We are running kernel 2.6.18.1 (and won't be upgrading in a while) out of arch/ppc
Eth0 and eth1 are in totally different subnets. We happened to have both ehternets connected to the same network, and I ran a arping agains the IP on eth0. Both ports (eth0 and eth1) responded with the same address, but different macs.... sudo /sbin/arping -c1 172.23.12.114 ARPING 172.23.12.114 from 172.23.15.21 eth0 Unicast reply from 172.23.12.114 [00:30:D7:00:14:55] 0.838ms Unicast reply from 172.23.12.114 [00:30:D7:00:14:54] 0.890ms Sent 1 probes (1 broadcast(s)) Received 2 response(s) It only gets both responses on the first (broadcast) query from arping All responses afterward is then from the wrong port....
