This setup is not special and FreeBSD can do it, of course. route add 1.1.1.1/32 2.2.2.2 route add 1.1.2.1/32 -iface vtnet0 In this example 2.2.2.2 plays role of your old public IP and 1.1.X.X are for new addresses routed via 2.2.2.2 or directly to interface vtnet0. And there is rc.conf settings "static_routes" to create such setup: static_routes="host1 host2 host3" route_host1="1.1.1.1/32 2.2.2.2" route_host2="1.1.2.1/32 -iface vtnet0" This is documented with route(8) and rc.conf(5) manual pages. In case of P2P interface such variants have no real difference other than used way to specify outgoing interface: by next-hop address or by interface name. P2P interface may have no address assigned for remote side. In case of Ethernet-link interface the difference is related to underlying ARP protocol cache, will it be asked for MAC address of specified next-hop or directly for MAC address of target like 1.1.2.1. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
