Just do not assign addresses from same network 10.20.0.0/16 to different

and you will be fine. Assign them all to right interface:

ifconfig_em0="inet 10.20.2.14 netmask 255.255.0.0"
ifconfig_em0_alias0="inet 10.20.2.15/32"
ifconfig_igb0_alias0="inet 10.20.2.16/32"
Interfaces meant to be all equal, last line should be:

ifconfig_em0_alias1="inet 10.20.2.16/32"

OK, I see. So this is in case I want many IPs assigned to the same
interface. What if I want one IP assigned to multiple interfaces (i.e.
so that the additional igb0-3 effectively work as a 4-port switch)?

Please consider bonding all NICs as one bridge(4) interface. Then
multiple IPs could be assigned to such interface.

Many thanks Eugene and Marek for your suggestions. I will now need to
decide if I want to fragment the network into subnets or bridge the
interfaces.

I believe some of the problem you are experincing is addressed
in this differential:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D14547

Your original configuration was(is) valid, just not common,
and I have not seen this done in more than a decade, but it
seems as if rstone@ also has someone doing this "multiple IP's
into same subnet on seperate interfaces".


Thanks for the link. That's interesting. According to this post that configuration shouldn't be valid:
