Why? > Isn't the problem solvable via a some kind of smarter dhclient? It isn't always bound to DHCP: just now I am sitting at $WORK and travelling via the building with WiFi and Ethernet -- I have static IP and when I plug into wire -- I have wired setup, when I am unplugged -- WiFi works here. But the magic of switching is inside if_lagg, not in some external app that looks for events and does the plumbing. And I like this way of doing things. > How other UNIX-like OS-es solve this? Looks like OSX does have the smart client that polls for the interface events and configures network accordingly. I should dig it a bit more, since I hadn't touched this part of OSX yet. -- Eygene Ryabinkin ,,,^..^,,, [ Life's unfair - but root password helps! | codelabs.ru ] [ 82FE 06BC D497 C0DE 49EC 4FF0 16AF 9EAE 8152 ECFB | freebsd.org ]
