If I set one interface with static IP address at install time, such as: em0 IP = 10.20.16.59 I hope these three interfaces are not on the same physical network. then I enable one interface with DHCP, such as, running command: dhlient fxp0 In /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_em0="10.20.16.59/24" (or whatever your netmask is) ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP" Then I reboot system. After system boot up, fxp0 assign an IP address by DHCP server. But the static ip address on em0 is gone. How can I correct this problem? It shouldn't be gone, but it may be unused if both interfaces are on the same network. (Use "ifconfig" to check the status of your interfaces.)
