So what actually happened to you is that on your host "stats" was resolved to 54.36.162.17, and then the resolved IP was set to your interface with /8 netmask. Since the setting was successful (and why would not it be, since you ran ifconfig as root) - you've got no error. > I have experienced the same issue on a FreeBSD based product close to the > 10.x release I'm unfamiliar with FreeBSD's ifconfig, and too lazy to dig their sources. Probably the explanation is the same. Reco
