Re: Virtual interface support?
For testing purposes, I have used the gif interface several times. I know man(8) gif states it is a tunnelling interface, but from stations on the network, the interface can be seen all the same. (I normally use the gif interface for simulating several interfaces for IPFW configuration). Don't know if it will help, but I thought I'd try anyway.

Re: Virtual interface support?
From: Jeff Penn [EMAIL PROTECTED] Does freebsd support virtual interfaces? (i.e. a network interface not associated with a hardware interface). Yup. My system is running 4.7 release with only a dialup ppp POTS connection, which is a bit limiting if you want to learn about networking. Ideally I would like to set up a private network address on a virtual interface. Understandable. There is a port called vtun which is especially nice for this. It even allows rate limiting and so forth, so you can simulate connections at different speeds. Very fun for learning, and also very useful for advanced routing, and vpns. The html documentation supplied with apache2 appears to require the server to be running for browsing (many of the links appear broken). If this support is provided by netgraph I would appreciate some pointers on setting this up. Netgraph supports it as well. Probably installing the mpd port would give you all the spiffy userland programs you need to do what you want. -Bill _ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 3 months FREE*. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmailxAPID=42PS=47575PI=7324DI=7474SU= http://www.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/getmsgHL=1216hotmailtaglines_smartspamprotection_3mf To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
