After much procrastination, I present the update RFC 1948 sequence number
patch. Modifications have been made so that it more closely complies with
RFC 1948, but still allows flexibility for sysadmins who want to reseed.
Thanks go to Barney and Julian for suggesting these changes.

Hi all,
We're currently experimenting with PPPoE on a FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE system with
a Windows 98 client using RASPPPOE. I've found some instructions on the web
on how to setup the PPPoE server and so far I've managed to make it run.
We are using the RADIUS server of our upstream ISP for authent
Hi,
Sorry for not making it clear. I believe RFC 2644
actually suggested that routers MUST default to
disabling directed broadcast except explicitly
configured to do so. But I guess one can never
be too careful. :-)

There were several incidents in the early days of the internet when
this functionality was in place that caused all kinds of problems.
Hello
let me cut to the chase and get on the subject...
I'm running FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE (used to 4.3-RELEASE)
I already had ip 66.92.98.145
su-2.05# host 66.92.98.145
145.98.92.66.IN-ADDR.ARPA domain name pointer oXyeTb.com
su-2.05#
and I wanted to bind ip 66.92.98.151
su-2.05# host 66.92.98.

This may or may not be a bug. I'm inclined to say that it is a bug; a
routing process should probably be informed when a new address is

Hello,
I'm currently trying to set my 3com 3C985-SX gigabit NIC to Half-Duplex.
I've recompiled FreeBSD to include the ti driver but have been unsuccessful
in setting it to Half-Duplex. I'm currently getting info from a fiber tap
which only sends and cannot recieve. When it enters full-duplex
I was wondering about RTM_NEWADDR. I have noticed that no such message
is generated when you add a new address to an interface with ifconfig.
So I have two questions: is that what is expected? And how can I receive
events whenever a new address is set on an interface?

Hi,
I think it's specified in RFC 2644. It might be useful

We had directed-broadcast forwarding before, and it was removed.
Perhaps someone might examine the CVS logs to see when and why.

"smurf" attacks love using broadcast forwarders.

This is because if_simloop() is broken. I proposed to un-break it
a while ago and never got any feedback.

Directed Broadcast is generally discouraged, and a BCP was published
not too long ago officially deprecating it (updating the router
requirements to require such a function to default to `off').

I haven't consulted the RFCs either, but, ahem, I thought this was a major
point of netmasks and routers and why multicast was invented- to keep
broadcasts from clogging the world.

I think it is correct NOT to forward local or subnet broadcasts --
it would be evil to let let an external node flood a subnet
with broadcast traffic.
On FreeBSD -CURRENT and -STABLE, packets to broadcast addresses are not
forwarded. For instance, if I have a FreeBSD router with interfaces
192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1, and I send packets from 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.2.255, the packets are dropped to the floor. IMO, this is wrong...
