Hello,
Why is usbus seen as a network interface since some time?
I'm running 9-CURRENT on amd64.
I've been wondering this, too. It also started happening sometime in the lifetime of 8-STABLE some
months ago, with "netstat -i" showing usbus network interfaces despite no ethernet NIC
being attached. It appears that "ifconfig" is smart enough to omit these in output, as
was netstat in former times on RELENG_8 (and still is on RELENG_7), so why include them now? Just
wondering...
I've been wondering as well, since all of a sudden tcpdump needs me to
specify the adaptor..
root@server:~# tcpdump
tcpdump: WARNING: usbus0: no IPv4 address assigned
tcpdump: unsupported data link type USB
root@server:~# tcpdump -i nfe0
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on nfe0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
