Dear list members,
i have followed pppoe(4) instructions on setting it up. It works
perfectly. But, i am very confused with the output for the netstat -rn
command (only relevant part)
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Interface
default 0.0.0.1 UGS 1 8 - pppoe0
0.0.0.1 default UH 1 0 - pppoe0
127/8 127.0.0.1 UGRS 0 0 33224 lo0
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 0 33224 lo0
224/4 127.0.0.1 URS 0 0 33224 lo0
For ifconfig -a, we have (only relevant part too):
pppoe0: flags=8851<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1492
dev: bge0 state: session
sid: 0xf0e2 PADI retries: 1 PADR retries: 0 time: 00:00:44
sppp: phase network authproto pap authname "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
groups: pppoe egress
inet6 fe80::211:11ff:fee3:927e%pppoe0 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
inet 201.78.17.238 --> 0.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffffff
I am not able to understand the cycle between 0.0.0.1 to default and
default to 0.0.0.1 entries for the routing information.
I am very confused.
Thanks in advance.
