I am puzzled by the fact that interface ppp0 is not automagically assigned to interface group ``egress'' though a default route points to it. This does not seem to match ifconfig(8): ``The interface(s) the default route(s) point to are members of the egress interface group.'' On the other hand bwi0 stays in the ``egress'' group even if the default route pointing to it is removed.
According to my OpenBSD experience it is probably me getting something wrong, anyone got a clue stick to apply on me? $ netstat -n -r -f inet Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface default 192.168.111.111 UGS 1 68 - 12 bwi0 default 10.1.67.76 UG 0 0 - 56 ppp0 10.1.67.76 10.120.190.120 UH 1 0 - 4 ppp0 127/8 127.0.0.1 UGRS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 5 82 33200 4 lo0 192.168.111/24 link#1 UC 1 0 - 4 bwi0 192.168.111.111 00:0e:56:00:4f:90 UHLc 1 4 - 4 bwi0 192.168.111.205 127.0.0.1 UGHS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 224/4 127.0.0.1 URS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 $ ifconfig bwi0 bwi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:14:a4:81:85:48 priority: 4 groups: wlan egress media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (DS11 mode 11b) status: active ieee80211: [snip] inet6 fe80::214:a4ff:fe81:8548%bwi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.111.205 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.111.255 $ ifconfig ppp0 ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 priority: 0 groups: ppp inet 10.120.190.120 --> 10.1.67.76 netmask 0xff000000 $ sudo route -n delete default $ netstat -n -r -f inet Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface default 10.1.67.76 UG 0 14 - 56 ppp0 10.1.67.76 10.120.190.120 UH 1 0 - 4 ppp0 127/8 127.0.0.1 UGRS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 3 280 33200 4 lo0 192.168.111/24 link#1 UC 1 0 - 4 bwi0 192.168.111.111 00:0e:56:00:4f:90 UHLc 0 24 - 4 bwi0 192.168.111.205 127.0.0.1 UGHS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 224/4 127.0.0.1 URS 0 0 33200 8 lo0 $ ifconfig bwi0 bwi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lladdr 00:14:a4:81:85:48 priority: 4 groups: wlan egress media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (DS11 mode 11b) status: active ieee80211: [snip] inet6 fe80::214:a4ff:fe81:8548%bwi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.111.205 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.111.255 $ ifconfig ppp0 ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 priority: 0 groups: ppp inet 10.120.190.120 --> 10.1.67.76 netmask 0xff000000 $ dmesg OpenBSD 4.9-beta (GENERIC) #650: Sun Feb 6 17:26:25 MST 2011 t...@i386.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC cpu0: Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 - M CPU 2.00GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 2 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CFLUSH,DS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,SBF,CNXT-ID,xTPR real mem = 1072721920 (1023MB) avail mem = 1045041152 (996MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 06/12/03, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xfd7e0, SMBIOS rev. 2.31 @ 0xe0010 (48 entries) bios0: vendor IBM version "1IET66WW (2.05 )" date 06/12/2003 bios0: IBM 2366EG9 acpi0 at bios0: rev 2 acpi0: sleep states S0 S3 S4 S5 acpi0: tables DSDT FACP SSDT ECDT TCPA BOOT acpi0: wakeup devices LID_(S3) SLPB(S3) UART(S3) PCI0(S4) PCI1(S4) DOCK(S4) USB0(S3) USB1(S3) USB2(S3) AC97(S4) acpitimer0 at acpi0: 3579545 Hz, 24 bits acpiec0 at acpi0 acpiprt0 at acpi0: bus 0 (PCI0) acpiprt1 at acpi0: bus 1 (AGP_) acpiprt2 at acpi0: bus 2 (PCI1) acpicpu0 at acpi0: C3, C2, FVS, 2000, 1200 MHz acpipwrres0 at acpi0: PUBS acpitz0 at acpi0: critical temperature 94 degC acpibtn0 at acpi0: LID_ acpibtn1 at acpi0: SLPB acpibat0 at acpi0: BAT0 model "IBM-COMPATIBLE" serial 20884 type LION oem "GW" acpibat1 at acpi0: BAT1 not present acpiac0 at acpi0: AC unit online acpithinkpad0 at acpi0 acpidock0 at acpi0: DOCK not docked (0) bios0: ROM list: 0xc0000/0x10000 0xdc000/0x4000!
