Sowmini,
Thanks for the response. I have run your dtrace script multiple
times and did see the issue happen again but did not see any output
when does this happen? On boot? or by running some specific command?
As I mentioned before, you said the interface is supposed to get its
address from DHCP- how do you trigger that address acquisition? Why
isn't the DHCP flag set on the interface? what does
"ifconfig nge0 dhcp status" report?
This happens a few hours after the system has been up. No specific
command running. I can actually walk away and come back a few hours
later and i has the DEPRECATED flag. I am using the standard DHCP method
for this, using /etc/dhcp.rge0. Why the DHCP flag is not set, I am not
sure. It may have been because I was trying various tests. I replicated
the issue again and posted the results below.
root@hostname:~# ifconfig rge0
rge0:
flags=1144843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,DHCP,DEPRECATED,ROUTER,IPv4> mtu
1500 index 2
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ff000000
ether 0:90:b:19:2a:dc
root@hostname:~# ifconfig rge0 dhcp status
Interface State Sent Recv Declined Flags
rge0 SELECTING 61 0 0 [PRIMARY]
from the dtrace script provided. Do you perhaps have another script
that goes a little deeper?
doesn't make sense to construct a dtrace script till we know what
the configuration process is.
