This is not a valid configuration. FreeBSD does not allow you to configure multiple network interfaces onto the same logical network. You probably want the 'alias' command to add the IPs to one physical interface. This is addressed in the FAQ and Handbook, and the ifconfig(8) man page. If you want to do trunking, that is another matter. Also be careful with your media statements, particuarly with regard to duplex. You may need to specify the duplex type with mediaopt. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
