Sure don't!  Thanks for your time.

For anyone who reads the linux-igd documentation.  Their route add line is
incorrect (at 'netmask') for FreeBSD, and the corrected route add line (with
'-netmask' - thanks Paul) does not work either.

The method I've found to work is to use an ifconfig alias (See Virtual Hosts in
the FreeBSD Handbook).

The error you reported was due to the fact that you specified 'netmask'
rather than '-netmask'. Since you didn't mention that you also tried the
latter, I could only assume you didn't try. Otherwise, your plea for help
would be poorly formulated, and I didn't want to assume that.

Now you are saying '-netmask' doesn't work either, but you didn't say in
what way. The error could not be the same. Since you didn't reply with
further information, I guess now I can only assume you don't require any
assistance.

-netmask doesn't work either  :)

use -netmask

For future reference, I recommend reading the man page related to the
specific command you're having trouble with.

I created an alias.

Perhaps this will work :)
