Re: static ip address and ifconfig
Well generally DHCP and static are mutually exclusive on the same interface. Also bear in mind that DHCP is more comprehensive than a simple address assignment system. In addition a static reservation is not the same thing as a static IP address assignment on an interface. They are similar but different. A DHCP assignment will bind one address to a MAC as well as configure address resolution, routing et cettera… Whereas a static IP assignment must be configured manually by you the human and not the ISP. Your ISP can route a block of addresses to you via a CPE like a DSL modem or router but you have to configure your equipment to consume the traffic passed on by that device. For instance my cable provider's modem boots DHCP, as does the router that they configure via DHCP net boot so that it may receive the block of static IP addresses assigned to my account. The router itself consumes the first usable address as delivered by the ISP. I am free to assign the remain 5 addresses to any device be-it a firewall or server at my discretion and connect it to the LAN side of this router. The following is sort of what these static assignment will look like on this server. xl1: flags=8863UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 ether 00:17:02:d3:84:6f inet 75.99.82.91 netmask 0xfff8 broadcast 75.99.82.95 inet 75.99.82.93 netmask 0xfff8 broadcast 75.99.82.95 inet 75.99.82.92 netmask 0xfff8 broadcast 75.99.82.95 media: autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active Regards, Mikel King Senior Editor, BSD News http://bsdnews.net On Dec 29, 2012, at 4:16 PM, Fbsd8 fb...@a1poweruser.com wrote: snip previous It still all depends on your configuration, it won't look any different than a static private IP address shows when doing an ifconfig except it will be the public IP.

Re: Full disk encryption without root partition
Hi, Are there any plans or is there already support for full disk encryption without the need for a boot partition? Well - what would be your benefit? OK - you might not create another partition but I think this is not the problem. From the point of security you would not get any improvement because some type of software has to be unencrypted. And this software could be manipulated to do things like e.g. send the encryption key to attacker. So from this point of view there is no difference whether the kernel is unencrypted or any other type of software (that runs before the kernel) is unencrypted. There is a solution named secureboot together with TPM but this introduces some other aspects that are not so very welcome in the open source community. So from the security point of view it might be a good choice to have a unencrypted and (hardware) readonly boot partition.

Of course this requires physical presence of some kind of operator who is confirmed to handle this specific media.

I agree that such kind of security isn't possible everywhere, especially not if you cannot physically access your server.

This basically means you do not actually use DHCP for your client machines (or better: for _your_ machines, be it servers, desktop computers or firewalls); instead you have to configure the components that would be DHCP's task on a dynamic IP connection.

You would also add entries to /etc/hosts reflecting your host's settings: 123.456.789.10 foo.example.com foo 123.456.789.11 foo.example.com foo All this implies that those settings are quite static.

But lets not get side tracked by something the question is not asking about. Please Focus on the part of the post you cut out which is asking about static ip addressees. Okay, good. I'll assume that the DNS issues aren't relevant, then. The simple answer is: the IP address(es) shown by 'ifconfig' will be the ones actually bound to that interface on that machine. Without knowing *how* you're binding those addresses, we can't tell you which of your 25 static addresses are bound on any particular machine. In most cases, I expect static addresses to be directly configured on the specific machine in question. Since you control that machine, and don't know what address(es) are configured, that probably isn't the case. As a second possibility, the addresses are allocated statically, but the host is configured via DHCP, from a server that knows those addresses are statically assigned to that host by hardware address or some other DHCP option. In this case, there will almost certainly be exactly one of your 25 static IP addresses bound to this specific host's network interface. But, again, the key piece of information is how the addresses are getting bound. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
