I don't think there are general bugs about neighbor discovery in FreeBSD since the beginning, but NIC drivers might have multicast bugs and although you are running this host since a long time such bugs might be unnoticed. You can show and clear the neighbor cache data by using ndp command, which has similar handling as arp. If you use tcpdump to debug NDP packets be aware that by enabling promiscuous mode you get every multicast packet despite of correct filter setup, so you won't see a problem if the driver isn't configuring the filter correctly. On the other hand you can workaround a such driver bug by enabling promiscuous mode. -- B.Walter <bernd_at_bwct.de> http://www.bwct.de Modbus/TCP Ethernet I/O Baugruppen, ARM basierte FreeBSD Rechner uvm.Received on Tue Mar 29 2011 - 12:53:10 UTC
