Hi,
I have alot of linux boxes with 3 NIC's, one for the main LAN and one for doing
testing (they send stuff to devices and check the replies) Anyhow, we want to use
the ISC dhcp client for testing a DHCP server. What I see happening is this:
/---------\
+------------------------+---------+ Sniffer |
| eth0 | eth0 \---------/
| box1 | box2
/------+------\ /------+------\
| 172.128.1.1 | | 172.128.1.2 +------> dhcp
\-------------/ \-------------/ eth2 server
ISC DHCP 2.0b1pl28
Linux Kernel 2.0.36
start dhclient on eth2 on box2
dhclient add's a route to 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 via eth2, this is okay, but then weird
things start happening to the other interfaces, for example, I ping out the eth0
of box2 to box1 and sniff the traffic on the main LAN and I see the pings, but
the mac address it is sending the ping to is it's own address!
This just seems wrong, surely there is something broken here?
