I accidently configured the same IP on a machine but on different interface and it is accepted. Maybe it is not a bug but semanticly it shouldn't be. I thinks I should send a pr for this problem cause it may cause other problems like the one I lived( losing network connection)
Here is an example:
rl0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=8<VLAN_MTU>
!!-> inet 192.168.6.49 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.6.255
inet6 fe80::250:fcff:fef6:20e8%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
ether 00:50:fc:f6:20:e8
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
rl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=8<VLAN_MTU>
inet6 fe80::20d:61ff:fe92:c70d%rl1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
!!-> inet 192.168.6.49 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.6.255
ether 00:0d:61:92:c7:0d
media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
