My FreeBSD 4.x box is act as bridge/firewall for our office, till we got a new router. It was setup quickly, so I activate bridge code, to eliminate setting new gateway for all servers. With my old kernel (@(#)FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #1: Tue Feb 13 14:45:07 EET 2001), everything was fine. But yestarday I cvsup'd to 4.3-BETA, rebuiild world and kernel, and fall in troubles... Bridging is still working...I guess, boxes after my box have internet, but my box - nope...mostly of time my box and only my box have no internet. I cant traceroute, cant ping even and my second IP, and out router. Sometimes I have a internet for a while...5 up to 10 minutes, then next half up to 2 hours I dont have any internet. My config is: rl0 inet x.y.z.245 netmask 0xfffffff0 - connected to office hup dc0 inet x.y.z.244 netmask 0xffffffff - connected to router via crosslinked cable. gate is inet x.y.z.241 netmask 0xfffffff0 net.link.ether.bridge: 1 net.link.ether.bridge_ipfw: 1 net.inet.ip.forwarding: 1 Fix: N/A How-To-Repeat: Not sure. Badly effects are randomly happen.
