Hi all,

I'm running PFSense 1.0.1 with three interfaces: WAN, LAN and then OPT1 acting as a bridged interface with the WAN. Our DSL provider gives us a /29 on the LAN port of their router and I use the first available IP for the PFSense WAN IP (which is also used for NAT on the LAN) and the remainder of the /29 bridges to OPT1.

On the boxes connected to the bridge interface I periodically get the following messages in the logs:

Jan 30 23:45:54 devel2 /kernel: arp: 74.x.x.26 moved from 00:50:ba:52:00:95 to 00:b0:d0:b6:94:3d on fxp0 Jan 30 23:47:21 devel2 /kernel: arp: 74.x.x.26 moved from 00:b0:d0:b6:94:3d to 00:50:ba:52:00:95 on fxp0 Jan 31 00:05:48 devel2 /kernel: arp: 74.x.x.26 moved from 00:50:ba:52:00:95 to 00:b0:d0:b6:94:3d on fxp0

The two MAC addresses in question are the WAN and OPT1 interfaces. I've seen some discussion of this on the freebsd-stable list, but no real good info. WAN is an rl card, OPT1 is an xl if that matters.

Any ideas why the bridged hosts occasionally see the "invisible" MAC address of the OPT1 interface?

Thanks,

Charles
